Astroparticle Physics - A Joint TeVPA/ IDM Conference

Astroparticle Physics: a joint IDM/TeVPA event brings together two major international conference series in Astroparticle Physics:Identification of Dark Matter andTeV Particle Astrophysics. We aim to provide the stage for the most recent advances in the booming field of Astroparticle Physics, bringing to Amsterdam - a city that has recently invested a lot into this research area through initiatives like GRAPPA and the D-ITP - leading members of the scientific communities that are contributing to its success. The topics of the conference will include: Cosmic Rays Dark Matter in Cosmology Direct Dark Matter Searches Indirect Dark Matter Searches High Energy Particle Physics Neutrinos High Energy Astrophysics The conference will be held at the Tuschinski Theatre, an extraordinary landmark built in 1921 in the heart of Amsterdam in a spectacular mix of Amsterdam School, Jugendstil, Art Nouveau and Art Deco. The main auditorium, which hosts many premieres of Dutch films, is considered one of the most beautiful cinemas in the world. A special social event is planned atHet Scheepvaartmuseum. It will include a guided visit to the exhibition halls and a sumptuous dinnerunder the recently installed Atrium. The schedule of the conference is organized with plenary sessions in the mornings, and parallel sessions in the afternoon. We expect to open the registration page at the end of 2013, through which it will be possible to apply for a talk in one of the 7 parallel sessions. For questions, please contact app14@uva.nl.
