Description
Light Dark World 2026 is the eleventh meeting of the annual Light Dark World International Forum, held at the Carleton University in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada.
Light Dark World 2026 will gather international specialists from both experimental and theoretical backgrounds to examine recent progress and create avenues for investigating new light particles that extend beyond the Standard Model. We will cover light gauge bosons, light scalars, light dark matter, axions, light sterile neutrinos, and dark energy fields.
