List of Neutrino 2026 satellite meetings:
The 5th Neutrino Physics and Machine Learning (NPML 2026), Date: June 15-19, Venue: ISEB10 and CalIT2
Organizers: Kazuhiro Terao, Jianming Bian et. al.
Website link: https://sites.uci.edu/npml2026/
The 5th Neutrino Physics and Machine Learning (NPML 2026) will be held at the University of California, Irvine. The NPML conference series are dedicated to identifying new opportunities, developing and sharing firm knowledge base, and building the future visions for impactful Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning (AI/ML) research for neutrino physics.
We look forward to your contributions to share the latest AI/ML research advancements at all levels of applications in neutrino physics, including experimental design optimization, detector operations and calibrations, physics simulations, data reconstruction, and physics inference.
We invite both individual speakers as well as representatives from a large collaboration in the neutrino community. Speakers from outside neutrino physics are also welcome to make contributions: your contributions will bring new insights and help us develop interdiciplinary research collaborations.
Physics Opportunities of Large Liquid Scintillator Detectors, Date: June 19-20, 2026, Venue: UCI Campus
Organizers: Gabriel Orebi Gann, Robert Svoboda
Website link: TBD
Charting the Path Beyond-Tonne-Scale and More Establishing sensitivity to neutrinoless double beta decay in the normal neutrino mass ordering is a defining goal for the coming decades. Organic liquid scintillator detectors offer a promising route to the large target masses and low backgrounds required, while enabling a rich additional physics program. Recent advances in detector technology, event reconstruction, and background discrimination motivate exploration of beyond tonne-scale sensitivity. At the same time, such detectors could also address DSNB, solar neutrinos, geo-neutrinos, and CP violation if deployed in a neutrino beam.
This town hall, held in conjunction with Neutrino 2026, will convene the community to discuss the physics case, technical requirements, and R&D directions for liquid scintillator–based 0νββ searches, with an emphasis on inclusive discussion and openness to novel concepts. This will be the first in a series of three town halls, with the goal of converging on a shared path forward.
0vbb AI Summer School, Date: June 20-21, Venue: ISEB
Organizers: Aobo Li et. al.
Website link: https://indico.physics.ucsd.edu/event/2/
The 0vbb AI summer school (a.k.a Neutrinoless Double Beta Decay AI Summer School) is designed to introduce AI/ML to students and postdocs without any prior AI/ML experience. Rather than a traditional lecture-focused program, our primary goal is to let each participant develop their own working neural network model, which they can take home and continue using in their own research. Student will pick a dataset from leading 0vbb experiments (CUPID, KLZ, LEGEND, nEXO, NEXT, SNO+) and develop their machine learning model through a series of hybrid lectures, hands-on tutorials, and discussions.
International Neutrino Summer School (INSS 2026 ), Date: June 29 - July 10, 2026, Venue: UCI Campus
Organizers: David Caratelli et. al.
Website link: https://indico.global/event/16507/
UC Santa Barbara, in collaboration with Fermilab's Neutrino Physics Center, is hosting this year's edition of the International Neutrino Summer School. The school will take place the two weeks following Neutrino '26. The location in part aims to allow for easy travel for interested participants who are attending Neutrino'26 in Irvine.
