14th CosPa Meeting: "Recent results from gamma rays astroparticle physics and future detectors" followed by PEPS Workshop

→ Europe/Brussels
The CosPa meeting will take place at the U-square ULB while the workshop at the IIHE.
Description

The CosPa network aims at federating Belgian groups working on astroparticle physics and at increasing the visibility of this field of research regionally and nationally. This meeting is focused on gamma ray research with a focus at the highest gamma ray energies. The meeting will be followed by a 2-day workshop on detector design and the science case at energies above 1 PeV (and not only).

CosPa network: cosmoparticles.be

The CosPa meeting and the workshop are funded by the FNRS-F.R.S.
