The School aims at providing robust and detailed introductions on the basic theoretical concepts and main tools to work in the field of Astroparticle Physics, Cosmology and Gravitation. Gravitational waves of astrophysical and cosmological origin, neutrino physics and astronomy, early universe physics, dark matter and dark energy, galactic and extra-galactic cosmic rays and gamma-rays, will be some among the main topics, and will be alternated along the years. The courses are organised as lectures and are integrated with hands-on and discussion sessions with an instructor.

The IWM-EC 2024 is organized by INFN-Sezione di Catania, INFN-LNS and Dipartimento di Fisica e Astronomia "Ettore Majorana" of University of Catania. The workshop is supported by the CHIMERA and INDRA-FAZIA Collaborations.

The conference, along the tradition of the previous editions of the Torino workshop, will be focused on the physics and nucleosynthesis of asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars and on several related topics. Among others, the meeting will offer a valuable opportunity to discuss the status of the art of AGB, post-AGB, super AGB modelling, the role of these stars in the chemical evolution of the Milky Way and other galaxies, the possibilities offered by present and future observational facilities (such as JWST, VLT, LAMOST, ELT ecc.), the study of dust formation in the wind of evolved stars and the meteoritic stardust measurements, hot topics in the field of theoretical and nuclear astrophysics.

The scope of the workshop is to bring together researchers from a variety of research fields, to address the current issues, and to discuss the future directions by interdisciplinary approaches. The conference program will include a series of oral presentations and poster sessions.

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.
