On this long-term workshop
In 2007, Yukawa Institute for Theoretical Physics (YITP) started new project "Yukawa International Program of Quark-Hadron Sciences (YIPQS)" funded by Japan Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology. In this project we select research topics for each long-term workshop and invite leading experts to stimulate discussion and to foster collaborations among workshop participants.
This time, we hold "Gravity and Cosmology 2018", as a successor of the three long-term
workshops held under the same title in the past (2007, 2010 and 2012).
The aim of the workshop is to have comprehensive but intensive discussion on the rapidly expanding frontiers of physics of gravity and cosmology.
During the workshop, participants stay at YITP with desks and other facilities. They can take ample time for discussions with other participants in a relaxed atmosphere of Kyoto.
