DaMaSC II - Dark Matter in Southern California

September 24, 2013
Hameetman Auditorium - Cahill Building, 1st Floor, California Institute of Technology -, Pasadena, CA 91125

The second edition of the DaMaSC symposium series will focus on cosmological and astrophysical aspects of dark matter, with an eye on how these probes can be complementary to direct and collider searches. Breaking the language barrier between particle physicists and astronomers is a major goal of this symposium, as is to address how current and future cosmological and astrophysical datasets can inform the dark matter question. 

This symposium is open to all interested faculty, researchers and students in the Southern California area (and beyond!).

Coffee breaks, lunch, and a wine-and-cheese reception will be provided for all attendees.
