The VIII Pontecorvo Neutrino Physics School

AbstraktAbstract

The VIII International Pontecorvo Neutrino Physics School, which was organized by Joint Institute for Nuclear Research in Dubna (JINR Dubna), Institute of Experimental and Applied Physics, Czech Technical University in Prague (IEAP CTU, Prague), Charles University in Prague (Charles U., Prague), Comenius University in Bratislava (Comenius U., Bratislava) and International Centre for Advanced Training and Research in Physics (Bucharest, Romania) at the Sinaia (Romania), September 1 - September 10, 2019, continued the tradition of Pontecorvo Neutrino Physics Schools, which were held in Dubna, Alushta, Horný Smokovec, and Prague in 1998, 2003, 2007, 2010, 2012, 2015, and 2017. The School covered a broad range of topics in neutrino physics and neutrino cosmology. The purpose of the School was to review the present status of experimental and theoretical neutrino physics. 23 outstanding lecturers drew attention of 78 students and young scientists to prominent neutrino physics experiments and unsolved problems concerning fundamental properties and interactions of neutrinos. Three evening discussion sessions were organized covering problems of oscillation mechanism, the effect of matter, and the nature of neutrino masses. 31 of students and young scientists presented results of their research during the Student Poster Session, 21 of them contributed to the proceedings.
