Last summer, European gravitational wave detectors have combined efforts to search for gravitational waves in a final three-month data-taking run before VIRGO is turned off for its upgrade.
Some announced the end of the world for 2012... For astroparticle physics, it is rather a key year for new beginnings. And it will certainly be a «hot year» on many fronts and - why not? - discoveries?
ASPERA Roadmap event - 21/22 November 2011 - Paris
European Strategy for Astroparticle Physics
The Scientific Advisory Committee (SAC) prepared a complete draft of the update of the ASPERA roadmap. The new roadmap, entitled “European Roadmap for Astroparticle Physics” , will be presented on the 21st and 22nd of November 2011 at the Collège de France in Paris.
This workshop will provide a unique opportunity to discuss how the priorities of European Astroparticle Physics are embedded in the European Large Infrastructure policy (ESFRI, CERN, ESO, ASTRONET), the synergies with more applied disciplines as e.g. the Geological or Environmental Sciences, as well as computing and industrial transfer actions.
