Workshop

 

          Supergravity 2015 - Padova, October 29-30.


Background

The workshop will gather a small group of experts (20) to discuss recent results on extensions, solutions and applications of supergravity theories to black holes, ads/cft, string phenomenology and cosmology.

People interested in attending the meeting should contact one of the organizers: Gianguido Dall'Agata, Stefano Giusto, Luca Martucci by email at name.surname@pd.infn.it.

The string theory group in Padova organized also the 2017 edition: Supergravity 2017
