VLVnT - 2018
Very Large Volume Neutrino Telescopes

JINR will host the 8th edition of the Very Large Volume Neutrino Telescopes Workshop (VLVnT-2018) from 2nd to 4th October 2018, in Dubna, Russia.

The workshop provides a forum to discuss the latest developments in neutrino and multi-messenger astronomy together with progress on the technological and instrumentation aspects of current and future large scale detectors in water and ice.

When

Starts Oct 2, 2018, 9:00
Ends Oct 4, 2018, 14:00

Where

Joint Institute for Nuclear Research,
International Conference Center
2 Stroiteley str., Dubna,
Moscow region, Russia

Scientific programme

Since the discovery of cosmic neutrinos by IceCube in 2013, the field of high-energy neutrino astronomy has experienced a new momentum. IceCube and ANTARES are providing high-quality data and have become an important component of multi-messenger astronomy. New cubic kilometer detectors are under construction in the Mediterranean (KM3NeT) and Lake Baikal (GVD), while the IceCube collaboration itself also works towards IceCube-Gen2. Moreover, radio detection of neutrinos is rapidly evolving. This stormy development makes communication, coordination and cooperation more important than ever.

The focus of the VLVNT Symposium is on the physics and technology of the projects cooperating within the Global Neutrino Network, GNN. According to the scientific scope of neutrino telescopes like ANTARES, Baikal-GVD, IceCube and KM3NeT (neutrino astronomy, cosmic rays, neutrino oscillations, dark matter search), the community of participants will be considerably broader and also include experimentalists from optical, X-ray, gamma-ray and cosmic ray observatories, gravitational interferometers, dark matter, reactor/accelerator neutrino experiments as well as theoreticians. We will also address aspects of applied science like oceanology, limnology, and glaciology.

The workshop will be organized in plenary and parallel sessions. It will represent a forum for exhibitions and presentations by industry, notably manufacturers of underwater sensors and infrastructures, and providers of related underwater equipment.
