7) Summer School , "Formation and Evolution of cosmic Structure"
Novicosmo 2007 , Novigrad-Cittanova , Croatia 10-21 September 2007
Motivations:
The goal of understanding the formation and evolution of the cosmic
structures in the Universe drives current advances in observational
cosmology. Over the last decade tremendous progress has been made in the
direct observational study of structures to look back times covering over
90% of the age of the Universe. In the current paradigm, cosmic structure
grows through gravitational instability which acts to boost small initial
fluctuations, seeded from quantum fluctuations during the inflationary phase
of the Universe. Dark matter haloes are built up which host ordinary baryons.
These blossom into luminous galaxies. While the evolution of the dark matter
follows simple physics, namely gravity, our knowledge has significant gaps
when it comes to describing the luminous, baryonic component of the Universe;
this ignorance becomes spectacular in the case of the very first "luminous"
objects which lit up the Universe at the end of the Dark Ages. Complex
physical processes need to be considered. Through the use of increasingly
sophisticated computer simulations, the first realistic attempts to model the
process of galaxy formation over the history of the Universe are now being
made.
The purpose of the School is to provide to young scientists with the
opportunity to widen their knowledge of cosmology and extragalactic
astrophysics and to become acquainted with key recent theoretical and
experimental results, as well as to foster an interactive exchange among
participants. We seek to establish an atmosphere in which observers and
theorists will review, confront and discuss with young scientists recent
progress and future directions.
The School is then aimed at PhD students and young scientists with a Post-doc
experience of less than 4 years. Outstanding upper level undergraduates may
also be considered. Each subject will be covered by 3 lectures of 2 hours
each, delivered by a scientist who has made significant contributions to the
topic. Everyday there will be a special seminar on a particularly important
subject in the field of Cosmology.

8) SIGRAV graduate school in contemporary relativity and
gravitational physics , VII edition : " The Dark side of the universe"
Villa Olmo, Como, Italy , May 14-18, 2007
http://www.centrovolta.it/sigrav/
The SIGRAV Schools are directed to PH.D. students and young Post-Docs in
Physics, Astronomy and Mathematics who are interested in widening their
knowledge in the fields of Physical Cosmology, Relativistic Astrophysics,
General Relativity, Experimental Gravity and the Modern Quantum Theories of
Gravitation. The Schools wish to introduce students to current problems,
highlighting their importance and potential scientific impact. Lecturers
will report on theoretical, observational and experimental aspects of the
research, reviewing latest achievements in the field.
PROGRAM
Studying the physical and astrophysical properties of the dark matter and
dark energy components of the Universe is a crucial step towards the
ultimate goal of unveiling their nature. A large number of present and
future experiments and observations is indeed devoted to this goal. The
school will focus on the theoretical and experimental/observational
aspects of this problem, as seen from both its cosmological and particle
physics sides.

9) Ecole de Physique des Astroparticules - I
10 -15 septembre 2007, OHP, Saint Michel l'Observatoire
Â? La Physique des AstroparticulesÂ?
Nous avons le plaisir de vous annoncer l'école thématique du CNRS
intitulée Ecole de Physique des Astroparticules
elle se tiendra ? l'OHP (Saint Michel l'Observatoire) du 10 au15 septembre
2007.
hhttp://www.cpt.univ-mrs.fr/~cosmo/WEB_EAP_07/EcoleAP-OHP07.html
Les organisateurs
B. Degrange (LLR) - J. Lavalle (CPPM) - R. Triay (CPT)
Contexte Scientifique
La physique des astroparticules investit aujourd'hui des problématiques
aussi diverses que l'origine et la propagation des particules-rayonnements,
la masse des neutrinos, la proportion d'anti-mati?re dans l'univers,
l'existence et l'origine de la mati?re noire, l'invariance de Lorentz,
la physique des processus gravitationnels ? champs forts, etc. Ces
derni?res années, les expériences associées ? cette thématique se sont
considérablement développées et leurs résultats suscitent toujours plus
d'enthousiasme. Dans la perspective d'assurer une formation
conséquente dans ce champ explicitement interdisciplinaire, le programme
a une tendance assez généraliste, il mettra en évidence les point
forts des th?mes suivants : Neutrino -- Gamma et GRB -- Sources et
processus d'UHE -- Mati?re noire -- Rayons cosmiques et
accél?rateurs cosmiques. Il vise ? couvrir autant les aspects
d'observation que théoriques de ces problématiques.

10) Santa Fe Cosmology Summer Workshop, July 2-20
The Santa Fe topical workshop for 2007 will concentrate on recent
developments in cosmology, especially those related to current and expected
observational advances, including the cosmic microwave background,
large-scale structure, galaxies and clusters, and dark matter and
energy/early universe. The format will emphasize discussion with some formal
pedagogical review and related talks as appropriate. Generally speaking we
would like to reserve the largest fraction of the day for discussion and
informal meeting. To encourage this informality and discussion, attendance
will be limited to about 80 participants.
There will be no registration fee and highly subsidized housing will
be provided (the precise cost estimates will be available soon, but
are typically $150/room/week, $50/week for students). Travel support
will not be available.
To register for the meeting and to make suggestions for the scientific
program, go to the Workshop website at
http://t8web.lanl.gov/people/salman/sf07/
We will be filling spaces on a rolling basis, so you are strongly
advised to register as soon as possible, and preference will be given
to those who register before April 05, 2007.

11) Ecole Internationale d'Astrophysique Daniel Chalonge
"Dark Matter, Dark Energy, CMB and LSS:
Understanding the Physics of the Universe"
16 -17-18 AUGUST 2007, Observatoire de Paris HQ, Paris campus
The Colloquium is within the astrofundamental physics spirit of the
Chalonge School, this time focalized on recent observational and
theoretical progress on dark matter, dark energy, including neutrinos
and sterile neutrinos, CMB data and the theory of the early universe
with predictive power.
The Topics are: Observational and theoretical progress in deciphering
the nature of dark matter and dark energy . CMB and Large scale structure
formation. Inflation after WMAP (in connection with the CMB and LSS data),
quadrupole suppression and initial conditions; quantum effects.
CMB polarization, primordial magnetic fields effects. Neutrinos in
cosmology.
In summary, the aim of the meeting is to put together real cosmological
data and hard theory predictive approach connected to them.
An exhibition will retrace the 15 years of activity of the Chalonge School
and of George Smoot participation to the School along these 15 years.
All informations about the Meeting, including the general timing and the
Programme and Lecturers of the Colloquium and registration information
are displayed at the chalonge school web site

12) workshop : " future wide field weak lensing surveys for cosmology."
April 24-25, 2007 , CPPM , Marseille.
The idea is to allow discussion between scientists working on current or
future (either approved or still in development) wide field weak lensing
surveys.
Although a good understanding on the statistical limits of weak lensing
exist, systematics are still to be explored in details and need to be fully
understood (shape measurements, understanding and modeling the PSF
correction, but also photometric redshifts and its requirements for
calibration) in order to optimize the survey and ultimately give
the best cosmology constraints.
Furthermore, with the current and future lensing surveys there will be
other lensing interests than measuring cosmic shear to probe cosmology, so
it would also be very useful to discuss these science cases
and understand their requirements.
I wish you can come and participate to this workshop. So please let me know
if you are able to attend and give me the title of your oral contribution
ideally before March 23, 2007.
The venue of the meeting will be at CPPM on the Marseille-Luminy campus

La thematique "Origines" (de la matiere: cosmologie ; de la vie : planetes
extra-solaires) est une des fortes priorites des agences europennes et
chinoises en astronomie/astrophysique. C'est une des grandes questions du
21me siecle pour laquelle d'etonnants progres ont ete realises ces
dernieres annees: decouvertes des planetes extrasolaires, de
l'acceleration de l'Univers et de l'energie noire, des anisotropies du
fond de rayonnement cosmologique, et des processus de formation des galaxies,
pour lesquelles de tres forts investissements en instrumentation sol et espace
ont ete engages.
