Hi everyone, please find below an announcement for the kickoff meeting of “Dark Matter - Particle Like” next week. M.E. On 6/15/20, 7:31 PM, "[log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> on behalf of Hugh Lippincott" <[log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> on behalf of [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>> wrote: Dear Colleagues, We would like to invite you to participate in the public kick-off meeting of the Snowmass Cosmic Frontier “CF1. Dark Matter: Particle-like" Topical Group on June 26, at 1 pm Eastern time, 10 am Pacific time. For experimentalists, please also circulate this invitation in your collaborations. The agenda and zoom coordinates can be found here: https://indico.fnal.gov/event/43903/ The CF1 topical group focuses on dark matter in the regime where it appears to cosmic frontier experiments/observatories as individual quanta. In particular, this topical group includes direct and indirect detection methods (and to some extent accelerator-based methods, although those are largely covered in other topical groups and frontiers). We draw the “particle-like” vs. “wave-like” boundary at a dark matter mass around 1 eV, with searches for sub-eV dark matter handled by the second CF group, CF2, and heaver dark matter covered in CF1 (this group). More details will be eventually found at the wiki page: https://snowmass21.org/cosmic/dm_particle<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__snowmass21.org_cosmic_dm-5Fparticle&d=DwMFaQ&c=gRgGjJ3BkIsb5y6s49QqsA&r=nIiwNvgoJbKFeHPRN_qb9tPoj-nxK3ZpB2xnJ6mn70mVLtmITodOD2kInqZENjpX&m=rdj_ndmgS4tw7WW4rL79dPrC66GXpq4rnXZH3sbDqHU&s=dXcwyaReS_3gLqr7oTaejx534H4EUsJVWiFFjPwG2yk&e=> The goal of the kickoff meeting will be to describe the process as we see it from CF1, get a broad picture of the scope of possible efforts that might fit into this topical group, prepare for a series of more focused meetings to follow this summer on particular aspects of particle-like dark matter, and get initial feedback from the community.. To gauge the interest of the community and help organize those meetings, if you are interested in particle-like dark matter in any way, please fill out the following questionnaire: https://forms.gle/M2GEoMfqCYpdhNSb8<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__forms.gle_M2GEoMfqCYpdhNSb8&d=DwMFaQ&c=gRgGjJ3BkIsb5y6s49QqsA&r=nIiwNvgoJbKFeHPRN_qb9tPoj-nxK3ZpB2xnJ6mn70mVLtmITodOD2kInqZENjpX&m=rdj_ndmgS4tw7WW4rL79dPrC66GXpq4rnXZH3sbDqHU&s=_fVPkfA59Lu1MeJ6fPMnubvO9jnUhLkkXmmLCdGBXuY&e=> In the meantime, make sure you sign up for our email list if you haven’t already, and also join the snowmass slack channels - we will move to exclusively using those forms of communication after this blast email. Details on how to join can be found on the wiki: https://snowmass21.org/cosmic/start#communications<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__snowmass21.org_cosmic_start-23communications&d=DwMFaQ&c=gRgGjJ3BkIsb5y6s49QqsA&r=nIiwNvgoJbKFeHPRN_qb9tPoj-nxK3ZpB2xnJ6mn70mVLtmITodOD2kInqZENjpX&m=rdj_ndmgS4tw7WW4rL79dPrC66GXpq4rnXZH3sbDqHU&s=hVSzwHioMj9d9PsoPhF3_-NXATxD-5XEk2J4jt7vMe0&e=> Also, we hope that you are already thinking about your LOIs and white papers, and we will certainly discuss those topics at the meeting. The CF conveners have prepared a template for LOIs that may be useful, found here: https://snowmass21.org/cosmic/start#submissions<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__snowmass21.org_cosmic_start-23submissions&d=DwMFaQ&c=gRgGjJ3BkIsb5y6s49QqsA&r=nIiwNvgoJbKFeHPRN_qb9tPoj-nxK3ZpB2xnJ6mn70mVLtmITodOD2kInqZENjpX&m=rdj_ndmgS4tw7WW4rL79dPrC66GXpq4rnXZH3sbDqHU&s=r3YWWr1W-Pwp5Hlh5QUAQFMIt5Wb9KRGrmABfSn0ztM&e=> Apologies if you receive this multiple times.
