Twenty Years after

SN1987A

What did we learn, what will the

next Supernova teach us?

February 23, 24 and 25, 2007

Hilton Waikoloa, Hawaii

 

On February 23, 1987 detectors on Earth recorded a pulse of neutrinos emitted by SN1987A. This historic event was the first and only detection of neutrinos from outside of our solar system. We have planned a conference at the Hilton Waikoloa near Kona on the Big Island of Hawaii on February 23 to 25, 2007, the 20th anniversary of this event. The conference will review what we have learned about supernovas in the past twenty years and what could be learned from a future supernova.  Talks will be by invitation only. Scientific topics include: the history of SN1987A, theoretical developments in understanding supernovas and their environments, neutrino properties and what we can learn about them from a supernova, and present and planned neutrino detectors.

Further information about the workshop, registration and accommodations will be available on this website.
