Description
We invite theorists interested in Dark Matter and related Early Universe Cosmology to take part in a one-week programme. Our aim is to bring together physicists with common scientific interests for discussions and collaborations. There will be no intense programme of talks, like at conferences or workshops. Rather, every day we will hold an informal presentation on a selected topic which will be led by one or more experts in the field, and will be meant as an occasion for an extended discussion. Young participants are especially welcome. Similar programmes have already been held at DESY in February 2008 (http://www.desy.de/~covil/entapp-vp08.html), at CERN in March 2007 (http://ph-dep-th.web.cern.ch/ph-dep-th/content2/workshops/DM07/) and January/February 2005 (http://cern.ch/ph-dep-th/content2/workshops/entapp/welcome.html) and at SISSA in October 2005 (http://www.sissa.it/he/mainpage/ap/geninfo.html) List of topics: Direct dark matter searches Dark matter at colliders Halo models and indirect detection Non standard Supersymmetric dark matter (gravitino, sneutrino, axino) Non supersymmetric Wimps List of discussion leaders: L. Strigari C. Frenk G. Gelmini M. Schubnell P. Salati A. Strong I. Moskalenko L. Baudis T. Schwetz-Mangold G. Belanger R. Trotta H. Baer
