The neutrino oscillation discovery was a breakthrough with an impact in particle physics, astrophysics and cosmology. While most of the mixing parameters are precisely measured, key open questions remain including the neutrino absolute mass and mass ordering, the neutrino nature, the existence of CP violation in the lepton sector, of non-standard interactions and of sterile neutrinos. While the majority of the available oscillation results are understandable by considering three active neutrinos only, some anomalies are actively debated. In parallel with the progress in our knowledge of neutrino properties important advances were made in cosmology and astrophysics. Among the open problems is neutrino flavor evolution in dense astrophysical media. In particular, recent theoretical studies of dense weakly interacting many-body neutrino systems in astrophysical environments uncovered novel connections to other domains including quantum computing. Moreover, the observation of ultra-high energy neutrinos opened a new window in neutrino astronomy; while the discovery of the diffuse supernova neutrino background is expected in the foreseeable future. The goal of the workshop is to create a collaborative and brainstorming atmosphere around key open issues at the neutrino frontiers. Neutrino 2024 will take place just before the GGI program that will happen at a very timely period when running experiments might deliver first results. Crossing results from Earth experiments, astrophysics and cosmology will be a major tool to push forward progress on crucial open issues at the frontiers.

Since their foundation in 1975, the Marcel Grossmann Meetings (on Recent Developments in Theoretical and Experimental General Relativity, Gravitation, and Relativistic Field Theories) provide opportunities for discussing recent advances in gravitation, general relativity, and relativistic field theories, emphasizing mathematical foundations, physical predictions, and experimental tests. The objective of the MG meetings is to elicit exchange among scientists that may deepen our understanding of spacetime structures and review the status of ongoing experiments aimed at testing Einstein's theory of gravitation, either from the ground or from space.

The 2nd edition of the International Conference on Machine Learning for Astrophysics (ML4ASTRO2) aims to unite leading researchers actively engaged in applying machine learning to astrophysical studies. Following the success of the first edition, this international conference is dedicated to exploring the challenges and opportunities presented by the impending Big Data era in astronomy. Focusing on the integration of ML/DL techniques with astrophysics, the event will showcase cutting-edge AI methodologies tailored for addressing key open problems in this field. Engaging discussions will revolve around the innovative application of AI models to observational and simulation data. We welcome submissions of abstracts for Oral Presentations or Poster Flash Talks encompassing a wide array of topics relevant to the intersection of machine learning and astrophysics.

The aim of the workshop is: to discuss Neutrino Oscillation Physics, in particular current experimental data and their theoretical interpretation; to outline future investigations of neutrino masses and mixings; and to explore the links with various research fields in Astroparticle Physics and Cosmology. The structure of the NOW 2024 Workshop will include four plenary and parallel sessions: I – Standard three-neutrino oscillations; II – Beyond the standard framework; III – Neutrino masses, states and interactions; IV – Particle physics from the sky and the cosmos; plus an extra (only plenary) session: Crossing the portal. Because of constraints in accommodation and to fulfill the workshop requirements, participation is by invitation, and is limited to about 115 participants.

The European Solar Physics Meetings (ESPM) are organised every three years by the board of the European Solar Physics Division (ESPD), a joint division of the European Physical Society (EPS) and the European Astronomical Society (EAS). The meetings bring together a large number of from Europe and beyond, who are active in the theoretical and observational study of solar phenomena. The 17th European Solar Physics Meeting (ESPM-17) will take place as a in-person meeting in the week of 9-13 September 2024, in the city of TURIN, ITALY.

Solar interior, sub-surface flows and long-term variability; Fundamental mechanisms of solar plasmas: magnetic reconnection, waves, radiation and particle acceleration; Energy and mass transfer throughout the solar atmosphere and structures within; Multi-scale energy release, flares and coronal mass ejections; Space weather and the solar-heliospheric connections; Diagnostic tools and numerical methods in solar physics.

The purpose of the meeting is to bring together experts and young researchers in the area of nuclear structure physics and nuclear astrophysics to discuss the current status of the field and to explore future directions, both in experiment and theory. With recent developments in instrumentation, theoretical tools and numerical simulations as well as significant progress in experiment and observation, the meeting is particularly timely. The aim is to cover a broad range of topics to elucidate synergies and identify areas of future progress. This should be especially beneficial to the younger participants of the meeting.

The 9th edition of the Roma International Conference on AstroParticle Physics will be organized by the INFN and University of Roma Tor Vergata. The acronym stands for Roma International Conference on Astro-Particle Physics, the Conference is entirely dedicated to the study of high energy cosmic rays and it is organized by the three public Universities of Roma (“Sapienza” University, University “Tor Vergata” and University “Roma Tre”). These Institutions provide both theoretical and experimental contributions and participate in major experimental projects in the field (AGILE, AMS, ANTARES, ARGO, Auger, CTA, Fermi, Virgo, Einstein Telescope, JEM-EUSO, KM3NeT, ,...). The Conference is held every two years.

Gravity and gauge theories share a rich infrared physics whose universal features manifest themselves in the context of asymptotic symmetries and their Noether charges. They clarify the soft factorization properties of scattering amplitudes, they play a role in the phenomenology of gravitational waves, and enter in the identification of new observable effects including gravitational and color memories. From the perspective of quantum gravity, they introduce new tools to understand the structure of the Hilbert space, and bring about a novel and promising approach to investigate a holographic principle for asymptotically flat spacetimes, currently pursued along two related lines: celestial and Carrollian holography. The latter exploits the Carroll structure at null infinity while the former takes advantage of powerful toolkit of conformal field theory. The vast majority of these developments have taken place in the last ten years and gave rise to research lines currently undergoing a fast growth. The proposed workshop aims at exploiting this rich and timely topic to bring together experts from all over the world, together with young researchers and students, with the goal to provide training, share results, build common grounds and foster new collaborations.

This workshop aims at catalyzing the joint efforts of particle physicists and cosmologists towards the exploration of new physics with large cosmological datasets. The workshop is structured to encompass three thematic weeks dedicated to model building and testing fundamental physics in cosmology, developing novel theoretical tools to search for new physics in cosmological observables, and discussing the potential of next generation experiments to probe the plethora of new physics signals. A symposium with summary talks will conclude the workshop. A concurrent school is planned, with the aim of addressing the evolving landscape of this new field and helping participants catch up with recent developments and novel tools. An important feature of the workshop is a designated focus week, devoted to the initiation of a much-needed community white paper, summarizing the new and well-motivated particle physics models that can be tested in cosmology in the light of upcoming data and planned future experiments. The workshop nicely aligns with the expected data releases from DESI and Euclid.
