Th e first week of each meeting consists on a workshop with plenary and contr ibuted talks\, and the second week of each meeting consists on open discus sions and free time for the participants to discuss or work on collaborati ve or their own projects.\nThe Bernoulli center\, located at the EPFL camp us in Lausanne\, provides open shared desk space for accepted participants .\nObservations of gamma-ray blazars indicate the presence of intergalacti c magnetic fields (IGMF) in the cosmic voids of the large scale structure (LSS) of our current observable Universe. Although their origin is still a n open problem\, they are possibly relics from the early Universe. New-gen eration gamma-ray and radio observatories\, like the Cherenkov Telescope A rray Observatory and the Square Kilometer Array Observatory\, respectively \, are expected to provide us with detailed measurements of IGMF in differ ent elements of the LSS\, including voids and filaments\, and clarify the origin of the IGMF in voids.\nThe main objective of the program is to prov ide a comprehensive description of cosmological magnetic fields\, from the different proposed mechanisms of magnetic field production in the early U niverse (first meeting of the program) to their current and future observa tional probes (third meeting of the program)\, including BBN\, CMB\, and t he LSS. The program will also review the prospects of combining astrophysi cal observations with the possible detection of a stochastic gravitational wave background to study primordial magnetic fields in a multi-messenger approach. The evolution of cosmological magnetic fields from their time of generation until the present time is the topic of the second meeting of t he program.\nMeetings\nPrimordial magnetogenesis: inflationary\, axion-mag netogenesis\, magnetic field production from phase transitions\, and chira l anomalies (April 29-May 10)\n\nEvolution of primordial magnetic fields: before\, during\, and after recombination (May 13-24)\n\nMulti-messenger o bservations and observational constraints (May 27-June 7)\n\nPlease indica te in your registration which meetings you would like to attend and your p referred meeting topic. Registration is open (https://indico.cern.ch/event /1334236/registrations) and the deadline to register and submit an abstrac t (https://indico.cern.ch/event/1334236/abstracts/) is January 14th 2024.\ nThere is no registration fee to participate in the program but registrati on is mandatory. Accepted participants will be notified shortly after the deadline.\nCourse\nIn addition to the meetings a course on "Simulations of early Universe magnetohydrodynamics" is offered during during the fourth week of the program (May 20-24). The course will cover some fundamentals o f MHD theory with hands-on sessions to learn the basics of MHD simulations using the open-source Pencil Code (http://pencil-code.nordita.org/).\nThe 2 ECTS course is open to EPFL students (see website) and early-career res earchers participating in the program (PhD students and postdocs). Senior researchers from other fields who are interested in learning MHD simulatio ns are also welcome.\nThe teaching material for the course are available h ere. You need a password to access the material which you should have rece ived on your email. If you don't have the password please contact one of t he lecturers (Jennifer or Alberto).\nThe course will take place at a diffe rent location in the EPFL campus:\n\nMonday: Bernoulli center\nTuesday: O DY 0 16\nWednesday-Friday: ODY -1 0020\n\nFinancial support\nTravel suppor t might be available upon request\, especially for young researchers. Plea se indicate in the registration the reason why you are applying for financ ial support. Decisions will be made shortly after the deadline.\nInvited s peakers:\n\nRafael Alves Batista (IFT Madrid)\nAxel Brandenburg (Nordita)\ nJens Chluba (JBCA Manchester)\nValerie Domcke (CERN)\nRuth Durrer (Geneva )\nFrancesc Ferrer (Washington St. Louis)\nDaniel Figueroa (IFIC Valencia) \nFabio Finelli (INAF-OAS/INFN Bologna)\nJuerg Froehlich (ETH Zuerich)\nTo mohiro Fujita (Waseda)\nJuan Garcia-Belido (IFT Madrid)\nDavid Hosking (Pr inceton)\nKarsten Jedamzik (remote) (Montpellier)\nMichael Kachelriess (NT NU Trondheim)\nTina Kahniashvili (Carnegie Mellon)\nKohei Kamada (UCAS Han gzhou)\nKerstin Kunze (Salamanca)\nAndrew Long (Rice University)\nManuel M eyer (Hamburg)\nKyohei Mukaida (KEK Tsukuba)\nDaniela Paoletti (INAF-OAS/I NFN Bologna)\nGabriella Piccinelli (UNAM)\nLevon Pogosian (Simon Fraser)\n Bharat Ratra (Kansas State)\nIgor Rogachevskii (Ben-Gurion)\nPaul Saffin ( Nottingham)\nAndrey Saveliev\nMatthieu Schaller (Leiden)\nDmitri Semikoz ( APC Paris)\nEvangelos Sfakianakis (Case Western U.)\nMikhail Shaposhnikov (EPFL)\nGuenter Sigl (Hamburg)\nLorenzo Sorbo (Amherst)\nFederico Stasyszy n (IATE/OAC Cordoba)\nKandaswamy Subramanian (remote) (IUCAA/Ashoka)\nRoma in Teyssier (Princeton)\nPranjal Trivedi (Hamburg)\nMichael Unger (Karlsru he)\nValentina Vacca (remote) (INAF-OAC Cagliari)\nTanmay Vachaspati (Ariz ona State)\nFranco Vazza (Bologna)\n\nOrganizers:\n\nAlberto Roper Pol (Un iversite de Geneve)\, alberto.roperpol@unige.ch\nJennifer Schober (EPFL)\, jennifer.schober@epfl.ch\n\nLocal Organizing Committee:\n\nAlexey Boyarsk y (Leiden University and EPFL)\, boyarsky@lorentz.leidenuniv.nl\nChiara Ca prini (Universite de Geneve and CERN)\, chiara.caprini@unige.ch\nMichaela Hirschmann (EPFL)\, michaela.hirschmann@epfl.ch\nTeresa Montaruli (Univers ite de Geneve)\, teresa.montaruli@unige.ch\nAndrii Neronov (Astroparticule et Cosmologie and EPFL)\, andrii.neronov@epfl.ch\nYves Revaz (EPFL)\, yve s.revaz@epfl.ch\nAlberto Roper Pol (Universite de Geneve)\, alberto.roperp ol@unige.ch\nJennifer Schober (EPFL)\, jennifer.schober@epfl.ch\n\nPublica tions acknowledging this program:\n1.
