UniverseNet is a
This network brings together the major European
theoretical physics groups investigating the fundamental physics which
shaped our Universe. The purpose of the annual
school is to provide training for postgraduate students and
postdoctoral researchers in the exciting interdisciplinary field of
particle astrophysics and cosmology. The training will cover the whole
spectrum of current research, ranging from the genesis of matter and
radiation, dark matter and dark energy, to fundamental questions about
the nature of space-time and of the Big Bang itself.
The topics to be covered include: the Standard Model and beyond, string
theory and the landscape, cosmic microwave background anisotropies,
large-scale structure formation, dark matter detection, inflation and
density perturbations, neutrino physics and cosmology, and high energy
cosmic radiation.
