Description

Axions and other very weakly interacting slim (m<GeV) particles (WISPs) are easily accommodated in several  extensions of the Standard Model of Particle Physics. Searches for WISPs are strongly motivated by our attempts  to understand the nature of the dark matter and puzzling astrophysical and particle physics observations.

The Working Group Meeting will shape the activities of the COST Action "COSMIC WISPers in the Dark Universe: Theory, astrophysics, experiments" (CA21106). 

The objective of the meeting is to promote a discussion among the different communities involved in the project,  with the immediate aim of reviewing the present experimental and theoretical status of WISP searches and plan further directions of investigation. 

A Technology Forum on technologies for WISP searches will take place on the afternoon of 2nd February

Preceding the meeting, on January 29 – 31 there will be a workshop aiming at exploring the physics prospects of WISP searches not relying on the dark matter paradigm, but also taking into account the prospects of direct dark matter searches : Axions beyond the Dark Matter Paradigm .

The Zoom connection details for the meeting you will find in the Bulletin, which you have received via email and is also available on this page under materials.
