The 2012 edition of the SciNeGHE
conference will focus on the interplay
between studies and measurements
concerning high energy gamma ray sources
and cosmic rays. A special session will
be devoted to the history of the cosmic
radiation research in the centenary of
its discovery. An update on the current
and planned research with space-borne
and ground-based experiments dedicated
to the observation of the gamma and
cosmic ray sky will be given, together
with the analysis of up to date
theoretical scenarios.R&D programs going
on to set up new observational
techniques and devices will also be covered.
Introduction to the current status of
gamma ray, cosmic ray, and high energy
neutrino operating experiments,
Discussion on new experiments and
theoretical developments, Particle
acceleration mechanisms in astrophysical
sources, Paths to the identification of
astrophysical galactic and extragalactic
sources, Status of cosmic ray studies
from direct and indirect measurements,
Indirect Dark matter searches and new
physics, R&D on new detection
techniques, The future of gamma and
cosmic ray experiments
