Purpose
The most important issues in high energy physics and modern astroparticle physics are:
- What is the origin of accelerating universe (Dark-Energy)?
- What is Dark-Matter?
- Absolute Neutrino Masses and it's Nature (Dirac or Majorana particles ?)
- What is the real history of our universe?
In this focus program at APCTP, we will invite most active foreign scholars together in those subjects in order to discuss intensively on the several paths to determine the absolute neutrino masses and it's related physics with Korean physicists and to try to find a way for the international collaborations.
Not only Neutrinos and Gamma-ray Burst, we also discuss on the history of universe, Dark-Matter and Dark-Energy, which are the most mysterious issue in the Modern Cosmology and Astrophysics.
Topics
- Neutrino Physics: Mixing and Masses
- Supernova Neutrinos and GRB Neutrinos
- Gamma Ray Burst Physics
- Reionization
- Dark-Matter and Dark-Energy
