abstract: In addition to revisiting the crucial questions from the 1992 October Astrophysics symposium "Back to the Galaxy" with 15 years of hindsight, this conference will embody our KITP program goals of bringing together multiple sub-fields of current Milky Way research. These include the Galactic center, high-energy signatures from dark matter, Milky Way archaeology and chronography through abundances and stellar kinematics as well as the formation and evolution of the Milky Way in a cosmological framework. Current and near-future data are critically entwining issues and puzzles across these sub-fields and it is our goal to have a meeting centered on the vibrant cross-exchange of new results and ideas.

25 Jan 2009 → 31 Jan 2009; Aspen, CO, United States

abstract: The conference, to be held at the Aspen Center for Physics, will focus on the latest developments in experimental and theoretical efforts to understand the nature of Dark Energy and Dark Matter and the crucial issue of how current and upcoming precision experiments will directly and indirectly measure their properties.

Key aspects of the meeting will be discussions on synergies between direct and indirect, and terrestrial and astrophysical dark matter detection, and how complementary observational approaches could distinguish between dark energy theories, for example those with gravity and particle based origins.

The aim of this conference is to bring together theorists and experimentalists, from astrophysics and particle physics, to discuss new approaches to understanding the origins of the dark sector - exposing experimentalists to the latest theoretical ideas, and giving theorists a perspective on what is experimentally achievable.
