The IGFAE Scientific Advisory Board will meet at the Institute facilities on November 5th and 6th, 2026.

REF 2026 is the 13th edition in the series of workshops on Resummation, Evolution and Factorization. The workshop brings together specialists in different areas, from effective field theory to lattice to QCD factorization methods. It will be held at the Instituto Galego de Física de Altas Enerxías (IGFAE) from the University of Santiago de Compostela (Galicia, NW Spain).

This talk will provide you a glimpse about the world of neutrinos -nearly massless "ghost particles", which are very abundant and everywhere. 

We trace their journey from the hearts of stars to cutting-edge labs in Japan, exploring the mind-bending theory of neutrino oscillations, where these particles change their type while traveling.

We provide an overview of state-of-the-art detection facilities: the iconic Super-Kamiokande, the long-distance T2K experiment, and the future Hyper-Kamiokande, a detector so sensitive it could explain why the universe is made of matter instead of nothingness. Finally, we show how this "invisible" science helps society, from monitoring nuclear reactors to peering inside the Earth\'s core.

ECRS 2026 is the 29th in a series of European Cosmic Ray Symposia, which are held every 2 years in one of European countries.

The main goal of the Symposia is to gather European Physics community performing research of cosmic rays and related fields, to present recent results, newly emerging ideas and forthcoming experiments.

La sede del IGFAE acoge el martes 23 de junio la jornada de presentación de la consulta preliminar de mercado para el proyecto de desarrollo de un prototipo para el Future Circular Collider del CERN.

El objetivo de la jornada, dirigida a empresas es conocer el grado de desarrollo de las tecnologías relacionadas con aceleradores de partículas para poder definir, posteriormente, una futura licitación de Compra Pública Precomercial impulsada para este reto por el Centro para el Desarrollo Tecnológico y la Innovación (CDTI). El IGFAE actuará como entidad validadora , contando también con la participación de la Axencia Galega de Innovación (GAIN).
