ISAPP2025@Lecce

9 Jun 2025, 09:00 → 20 Jun 2025, 19:00 Europe/Rome

Lorenzo Perrone (Università del Salento and Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare Sezione di Lecce)

Welcome to the 2025 edition of the ISAPP school held in Lecce (Italy)! 

Covered topics include cosmic rays, high-energy neutrinos and gamma rays, multi-messenger astronomy and gravitational waves.  The format will include lectures and exercises,  experimental seminars  and dedicated hands-on sessions guided by experts in the field.

Phenomenology of astrophysical sources:

• Acceleration mechanisms
• Particle production (charged, photons and neutrinos) 
• Propagation, interaction channels 
• Search for Dark Matter, exotics, BSM

Detection techniques and status of the art::

• Direct observation from space: satellites, balloons
• EAS detectors (ground, fluorescence/Cherenkov/radio) 
• Multi-messengers (photons, astrophysical neutrinos, GW) 

Seminars:

• Highlights from the main experiments in the field
• Phenomenological or theoretical status of the art in specific topics, open points and new frontiers
• Specific analysis techniques such as AI and machine learning
• Roadmap for astroparticle physics in the near future

 

The school is part of the ISAPP network program
