General Information

The 5th International Solar Neutrino Conference took place in Dresden from 11^th – 14th June 2018. An organisation team of scientists from the Faculty of Physics and the Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf welcomed more than 60 solar neutrino researchers from all over the world.

The scientific programme focused on solar neutrino physics with particular emphasis on running and future solar neutrino experiments, detection techniques, solar models, helioseismology, phenomenological aspects, neutrino oscillations and nuclear physics related to solar models. The conference featured both invited talks and a poster session.

Associated to the international solar neutrino conference, a special programme for Alumni Germany was organized. The workshops and excursions within the frame program aimed to introduce TU Dresden and the Alliance DRESDEN-concept, to support networking and to inspire exchange of collaboration ideas.

The conference was supported by the DAAD (German Academic Exchange Service).

Scientific Programme

The focus of this conference was on solar neutrino physics. Above all it covered the following topics:

• Solar models
• Nuclear physics related to solar models, astrophysical S-factors
• Solar neutrinos and helioseismology
• Running and future solar neutrino experiments
• Detection techniques
• Neutrino oscillations, MSW effect
• Solar neutrino flux time variations

Framework Programme

In addition to the scientific programme, the TU Dresden on behalf of Alumni Germany offered a diverse framework and social programme during the conference.

The workshops and excursions within the framework programme aimed to introduce TU Dresden and the Alliance DRESDEN-concept, to support networking and to inspire exchange of collaboration ideas.

Publication

Proceedings will be published by World Scientific. All presenters (invited speakers and poster presenters) are invited to contribute to the volume. Contributions will be published as a dedicated hardcover book at World Scientific.
