20th Symposium on Astroparticle Physics in the Netherlands

→ Europe/Amsterdam
Hotel Erica, Berg en Dal

Hotel Erica, Berg en Dal

Molenbosweg 17 6571 BA Berg en Dal
Jörg Hörandel (Radboud University Nijmegen dep. Astrophysics)
Description
The annual meeting of the Dutch astroparticle physics community will be held this year as a two-day symposium on March 26th and 27th, 2015 in Hotel Erica in Berg en Dal. This will be the 20th symposium of a series which started in the year 2004. The meetings are organized by the Committee of Astroparticle Physics in the Netherlands - CAN. The idea of these symposia is to form a strong astroparticle physics community in the Netherlands. The symposia give a platform to (PhD) students and postdoctoral researchers to present their recent results to a nation-wide audience and to establish new scientific contacts beyond the own working group. It is also a tradition to have international keynote speakers, reviewing important aspects of astroparticle physics. This meeting will also be the annual meeting of the new NWO research program Waves, Rays, and Particles - WARP.
