17 April 2014 There has been extraordinary progress in the understanding of neutrino properties during the last 15 years. Nevertheless, a few important parameters for particle physics and cosmology need yet to be determined, chief amongst them: the neutrino mass hierarchy and absolute scale, the determination of the CP violation parameter, the existence or not of sterile neutrinos.

17 April 2018 The Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) is the planned next generation ground-based very-high-energy gamma ray observatory; an open infrastructure, it will serve a wide particle astrophysics community for many years to come. The CTA will be composed of two arrays, one in the northern hemisphere and one in the south, and aims to
