We cordially invite your participation.
The purpose of this winter school is to present an overview of the progress in major areas of cosmic ray astrophysics and gamma-ray astronomy in recent years, and to provide an introduction to the essential physics and concepts. It will also be an opportunity to bring together both new and established researchers in the field for discussion and exchange of ideas.
The programme will cover a broad range of topics within cosmic ray astrophysics and gamma-ray astronomy, ranging from theory/modelling & simulation to instrumentation & observation.
The school is intended for graduate research (PhD and Masters) students and post-docs with an interest in becoming involved in high energy astrophysics (in particular, topics relating to cosmic rays and gamma-rays), as well as early-career scientists already active in the field looking to broaden their understanding. It will comprise of a keynote lecture and six primary lecture series from international experts, plus five highlight science talks to complement the programme. The keynote lecture will be given by Prof Werner Hofmann (Max-Planck-Institut für Kernphysik, Heidelberg, Germany).
