Underground Laboratories Find the 2017 TAUP Ianni, Aldo TAUP 2017 Program HEREAldo Ianni! , Laboratorio Subterraneo de Canfranc and LNGS The biennial TAUP series covers recent experimental and theoretical developments in astroparticle physics by invited plenary review talks and parallel workshop sessions of invited and contributed presentations. The purpose of TAUP is to bring together theorists and experimentalists working in Astroparticle Physics, to review and discuss the status and prospects of the field. TAUP consists of invited review talks, workshop sessions devoted to specific subjects and poster sessions. Topics covered by the conference are: Cosmology and particle physics http://taup2017.snolab.ca/ Pagina 1 di 3 Outline Main features of Deep Underground Laboratories worldwide • Main experimental activities being reviewed in this meeting • Main ideas and programs in physics being reviewed in this meeting • Some complementary information being reviewed in this talk Expansions and new excavations Synergy and networks for DULs DULs as multidisciplinary research infrastructures Aldo Ianni, TAUP 2017 DULs worldwide DULs: more than 1000 m.w.e. overburden 13 infrastructures (DULs) in operation at present (north hemisphere!)
