The UNDARK's Second Scientific School will be held in Annecy (France) at the LAPTh, a world-class research laboratory just 40 km away from CERN, from the 9th - 13th March 2026.
UNDARK Scientific Schools are week-long events aimed at equipping PhD students in the field of astroparticle physics with theoretical, phenomenological and numerical tools at the forefront of their field of research. The 2nd UNDARK Scientific School will focus on the multi-messenger non-thermal universe, including astrophysics of radio to gamma-ray observations and tests of fundamental physics.
No fee will be charged to participating students. A maximum of 30 students will be accepted. Coffee breaks, lunches and up to two dinners will be offered to the participants.
The UNDARK consortium, where UNDARK stands for Unravelling the Dark Universe from the Canary islands Observatories, aims at resolving the constituents and the laws which govern this dark side of the universe. The consortium is led by the IAC, in partnership with CERN, IFAE, WIS and LAPTh. More information can be found in the UNDARK's website.
UNDARK's first school was organized by IFAE and held at the Benasque Science Center (Benasque, Spain) from March 9 to March 15, 2025.
