Ends On:

30 September 2011

Location:

Trieste - Italy

Venue:

LB (Main Lecture Hall)

Organizer(s):

P. Creminelli (ICTP), C. Deffayet (APC Paris), G. Dvali (LMU-MPI Munich, CERN & NYU), S. Randjbar-Daemi (ICTP), V. Rubakov (INR Russian Academy of Sciences & Moscow University), R. Sheth (ICTP)

Description:

TOPICS:

- Theoretical aspects of IR modified gravity
- Tests of gravity

The purpose of the workshop is to foster the discussion about all aspects of IR modifications of gravity (massive gravity, scalar-tensor theories, brane induced gravity, Galileon theories, cosmological and astrophysical tests of modified gravity...) through a small number of talks and discussion sessions.
