The workshop axions++ is aimed at providing a sweeping snapshot of the most topical aspects in the theory, phenomenology and experiments on axions and other light particles (that's the ++). It will take place from the 25th of September (Monday) to the 28th of September 2023 at LAPTh in Annecy, France.
The workshop includes one day (i.e. two successive half days) of invited lectures (1h 15' each) providing broad and accessible overviews on all the core topics, followed by two days of invited and contributed talks. We aim for a truly collaborative atmosphere, with ample room for discussions.
The lectures topics are:
| The many physics cases for axions | Enrico Nardi, INFN Frascati and NICPB, Tallinn | ||
| Axions and gravity | Gia Dvali, LMU and MPI, Munich | ||
| Experimental landscape for axions and other light particles | Julia K. Vogel, Zaragoza Univ. | ||
| HEP phenomenology of axions and other light particles | Veronica Sanz, Sussex and Valencia | ||
| Astrophysical aspects | Maurizio Giannotti, Zaragoza Univ. | ||
| Axions and gravitational waves | Valerie Domcke, CERN TH Dept. |
After the lectures part, a number of talks, some of which invited, will present topical research results in the theory, phenomenology and experiments on axions and other light particles.
