Programme

The meeting will focus on Supergravity and Superstrings, and it will celebrate the carreer and achievements of Riccardo D'Auria, from the early days of string theory to the most recent developments in the physics of black holes.

The registration is now open.

Lectures will take place at the Sala Consiglio di Facoltà of Torino Politecnico. For those attending the conference dinner a payment of about 50€ in cash for themselves and each accompanying guest will be required unpon arrival, on the early afternoon of April 22nd at the welcome desk outside the main lecture hall.
