will be held in Asheville, North Carolna, USA, from May 16 to May 21, 2022.
The NDM symposia are designed to bring together researchers in the fields of
neutrino physics, astrophysics, dark-matter physics, and nuclear-structure
physics to discuss the theory and experimental developments needed to
investigate neutrinos and dark matter with nuclear targets or decay processes,
astrophysical phenomena, etc. With the growing role of astrophysics and
low-energy experiments in fundamental physics, the NDM symposia are an
increasingly important way to exchange ideas and results among people from
different areas. No other large meetings address, for example, the role of
nuclear structure in fundamental physics.
The topics of the conference include:
* Coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering, nuclear excitation by neutrinos
* Neutrino scattering in nuclear physics, astrophysics, nucleosynthesis,
oscillation experiments
* Solar and supernova neutrinos: models and detection
* Double beta decay: experiments and nuclear matrix elements
* Beta decay for neutrino mass measurements
* Cosmological neutrinos and detection feasibility
* Neutrino flavor transformation
* Beyond-the-Standard-Model physics searches, sterile neutrinos, experimental
anomalies
* Direct dark-matter searches with atomic and nuclear targets
* Indirect dark-matter searches
* Neutrino astronomy and multi-messenger astrophysics
* Instrumentation for neutrino and dark matter detection
* The future of nuclear-structure theory/experiment and its implications for
fundamental physics.

Registration will be open soon.
NDM22 is the latest in a series that began with a conference in Nara,
Japan, in 2003. NDM06 took place in Paris, NDM09 in Madison, Wisconsin, NDM12
in Nara (again), NDM15 in Jyvaskyla, Finland, and NDM18 in Daejeon, Korea.
Plans for an NDM21 in North Carolina had to be altered because of the pandemic.
