Description

We are pleased to advertise the first in a series of workshops focused on defining the dark matter science case for the next-generation massively multiplexed cosmology experiment, Spec-S5 (https://spec-s5.org/).  

This workshop will be held in-person at KICP/UChicago on Oct 27-29. Zoom access will be provided, though we strongly encourage in-person attendance since much of the workshop will be focused around small group discussions. The program is still under construction, but we expect a relatively brief introduction session followed by small group discussions focused on topics of shared interest. By the end of the meeting, we expect to have collectively assembled an outline for the Spec-S5 dark matter science program that can be fleshed out in future meetings in this series.
 
Note that registration is required for in-person participation. Payment of the registration fee must be handled separately using the appropriate link on the Indico side bar.
