Scientific Program

Preliminary program is now accessible on Indico.

The Scientific Program will consist both plenary and working group sessions. The plenary sessions will include overview talks, highlight talks , working summary talks, and a workshop summary talk. During the working group sessions, there will be invited mini-reviews as well as contributing talks.

Abstract submission is now open. The working group program will be organized by the session conveners (one experimentalist and one theorist). If you are interested in giving a talk, please contact directly the session conveners.

Topics to be covered in the four working groups include:

(I) Neutrino Physics: theories of neutrino masses and mixing; long-baseline oscillation experiments; short-baseline oscillation experiments; atmospheric neutrinos; reactor neutrinos; solar neutrinos; searches for sterile neutrinos; neutrino-nucleus cross sections; direct neutrino mass measurements; neutrino-less double beta decay.
