Submission deadline
The primary objective of this workshop is to bring together experts on and practitioners of gravitational lensing to address the nature of Dark Matter (DM), with a particular (albeit not exclusive) focus on whether DM comprises ultra-massive particles such as WIMPs or ultra-light particles (which manifest themselves on macroscopic scales as waves) such as Axions. We aim for an honest discourse on the caveats, weaknesses, and ambiguities of each approach, so as to make clear what steps we, as a community, need to take to improve upon the standard of evidence for the nature of DM.
We plan to cover (partially) the accommodation for contributed speakers if budget allows. The decision is to be made depending on 1) the relevance and importance of the talks and 2) the order of receiving your abstract such that we encourage an early submission of the abstract.
Since we have an influx of abstract submission before the previous deadline, we have now decided to extend the deadline until further notice. Submissions later than the original deadline (31st Jan) would still be considered, but with a lower priority. Our abstract review process would begin promptly.
For any questions, please email dmlens@hku.hk.
