Cosmology 2025 @ Elba Island

Info for the Shuttle from Portoferraio to Biodola: call #+393485118616 when boarding in Piombino to ensure the presence of the shuttle at the piers in Portoferraio. A meeting point is in the bus station just facing the piers.

Cosmology offers today one of the most important frontiers of physics. The mystery of dark matter and the puzzle of dark energy are still outstanding.  On the observational side, there is an exponential growth of accurate and important data, which will help in establishing the new needed theories.

In this conference we plan to bring together researchers from the observational, computer simulation and theoretical sides working in cosmology, astrophysics, astroparticle and particle physics, to discuss the current situation as well as  prospects for the future improvements.

All the topics will be discussed from different angles starting from the booming flow of observational data. The topics to be discussed will include:

1. The current Cosmological Model and its Tensions (Theory and observations)
2. Dark Matter (Its nature: Theory, Observations, Detection, Production at accelerators)
3. The Evolving Universe (Reionization, first galaxies and their SMBH, Quasars and AGN, the assembly of cosmological structures)
4. Probes of the Universe from (new incoming) measurements of the CMB and of Large Scale structure.
5. Multimessenger cosmology (Gravitational waves, Cosmic Gamma and X-rays, Neutrinos)
6. Black holes in the Universe over many orders of magnitude in mass
7. Fundamental aspects of Cosmology.

A number of invited talks from leading scientists as well as a number of  contributed ones from participants will be presented.

The conference will take place in the Hermitage hotel in La Biodola, Elba island, in a conductive atmosphere, appropriate for the dramatic paradigm shift that we may be witnessing in these days.  

The conference will begin on the morning of Monday and end before lunch on Saturday.

The organizer and sponsors will support a number of young invited speakers. We also aim to support the accommodation for a limited number of young researchers (master’s/PhD students or early post-docs) who are submitting an abstract to the conference.
