Barolo Astroparticle Meeting

3 Sept 2017, 16:00 → 6 Sept 2017, 14:00 Europe/Rome

Barolo

The Barolo Astroparticle Meeting is a workshop aiming at discussing topical open issues in Astroparticle Physics.
The 2017 edition focuses on "WIMPs vs non-WIMPs in dwarf spheroidal galaxies". The informal structure of the workshop has the goal to stimulate brainstorming discussions and to allow participants to put forward the scientific questions they consider most intriguing. The program includes a number of review talks, two plenary discussions and two splinter meetings.
Organizing Committee: F. Donato, N. Fornengo, M. Regis and H. Zechlin (University of Torino and INFN)
