Spring College on the Physics of Complex Systems | (smr 3189)
ICTP and SISSA, in collaboration with the partner institutions of the Master in the Physics of Complex Systems (http://www.polito.it/pcs) will organize the Spring College on the Physics of Complex Systems from 19 February to 16 March 2018.
Many complex systems in physics, biology, engineering and economics are characterized by a large number of interacting degrees of freedom giving rise to a non-trivial collective behavior. The theoretical and computational tools for a quantitative analysis of complex systems are often rooted in modern (statistical, quantum) physics. The Spring College on the Physics of Complex Systems aims to give students the opportunity to get in touch with a selection of topics at the forefront of research during an intensive 4-week program. It consists of 5 courses of 9 lectures each, followed by final written tests.
Invited Lecturers:
Antonio Celani (ICTP, Trieste)
Maurizio Fagotti (ENS, Paris)
Chris Mathys (SISSA, Trieste)
Henri Orland (CEA, IPhT, Gif-sur-Yvette)
Gregory Schehr (LPTMS, Orsay Cedex)
Applicants from all countries that are members of the United Nations, UNESCO or IAEA may attend. Participants should have an adequate working knowledge of English. Candidates are required to solicit recommendation letters to be sent by their supervisors in support of their application. As a rule, travel and subsistence expenses of the participants should be borne by their home institutions. However, limited funds are available to partially support some participants, who are nationals of, and working in, a developing country, and who are not more than 45 years old. Such support is limited and candidates should make every effort to secure support for their travel, at least partial. Attendance of lectures and completion of the final written tests are mandatory for those who are granted ICTP funding.
There is no registration fee.

Joint ICTP-IAEA Advanced School on IAEA/AAPM Code of Practice for the Dosimetry of Static and Small Photon Fields | (smr 3196)
Modern radiotherapy has substantially increased the use of small radiation fields like those used in various forms of SRT, SBRT, SRS and IMRT. These treatments are not only performed with specialized, dedicated machines, but also with conventional, non-dedicated accelerators equipped with high resolution multi-leaf collimators.
In radiotherapy, accurate doses are essential. Therefore, a key requirement in radiotherapy is consistent reference dosimetry and consistent procedures within a country. For conventional radiotherapy this has been achieved by internationally adopted codes of practice. Howewer the standard codes of practice are based on the use of a 10 cm x 10 cm reference field that may not be achievable using some modern specialized machines.
A joint working group between the IAEA and AAPM has written a new small field code of practice. The aim of this course is to teach participants how to implement the new code of practice in the clinic.
PARTICIPATION:
This workshop is for clinically qualified medical physicists from United Nations, UNESCO or IAEA member countries who should hold a university degree preferably in medical physics. The candidate should also have at least 3 years working experience in a hospital and must participate in small field clinical techniques. Participants should have an understanding of IAEA TRS-398, ‘Absorbed dose determination in external beam radiotherapy’.
The workshop is an opportunity for medical physicists from Member States to get first-hand information on the dosimetry of small fields in radiotherapy. It will be beneficial to clinical medical physicists working in radiotherapy modalities using small fields such as Stereotactic Radiotherapy (SRT), Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy (SBRT) Stereotactic Radiosurgery (SRS) and Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT). TOPICS: Physics and challenges of small field megavolt photon beams; description of the new IAEA/AAPM code of practice for the dosimetry of static small photon fields; discussion of small field detectors; absorbed dose to water standards for small fields; machine-specific reference dosimetry; output factors: definition, measurement and correction; and relative dose measurements in small fields.

Integrated Environmental Health Impact Assessment (IEHIA) on Air Pollution and Climate Change in Mediterranean Areas | (smr 3250)
CONTEXT The Mediterranean is a hotspot for climate change and air pollution. Climate change will significantly impact the regional air quality by reinforcing the hot, sunny and dry Mediterranean climate.
Mediterranean inhabitants are already regularly exposed to pollutant loads well above WHO (World Health Organization) air quality recommendations standards and will be further exposed.
Additional exposures to air pollution and warm conditions will result in an excess of premature deaths, but we still lack quantification of the impact in southern and eastern countries.
Thus, there is a need to promote and develop Integrated Health Impact assessment (IHIA) approach by empowering scientists from around the Mediterranean basin.
OBJECTIVES The objective of the training school is to strengthen in-country scientists and stakeholders capacity to face the health challenges posed by environmental stressors.
It aims at giving early-stage researchers a good understanding of risk and uncertainty matched to a set of practical skills in facing the environmental health issues related to evaluating the health impact of air pollution and climate change.
Students will be trained to the practice of exposure assessment, epidemiology and integrated health impact assessment.
CONTENTS The school will introduce state of the art knowledge on air pollution and climate change in the Mediterranean region, as well as methodologies of health impact assessment.
It will give students knowledge of protocols, tools, sources of data and will make them practice on case studies specifically designed for the school in order to enable them performing air quality and climate health impact studies including economic valuation. The school will also give insights on how to identify public health priorities for research and preventive actions.
The teaching will be provided by recognized experts in atmospheric chemistry, climate, epidemiology, toxicology, economics... Participants will be able to interact and communicate with all these experts.

Conference on Collective Behavior | (smr 3201)
In nature, collective behaviour is a widespread phenomenon that spans many systems at different length- and timescales. Cells forming complex tissues, social insects such as ants creating dynamical structures using their own bodies, fish schools and bird flocks with their synchronous and coordinated motion are prototypical examples of the emergent self-organization which arises from local interactions among a large number of individuals. Unravelling the underlying principles and mechanisms through which such a macroscopic complexity is achieved is a fundamental challenge in biological sciences.
Collective behaviour has become a unifying concept in a range of disciplines—from the spontaneous ordering of spins in ferromagnetic systems in physics, to the emergence of herding behaviour in economy, to the consensus dynamics in social sciences. Furthermore, enormous potential lies in the field of robotics in which, drawing inspiration from natural swarms, artificial collectives can be created with the abilities of the natural ones.
A range of techniques have developed over recent years which allow unprecedented acquisition of quantitative empirical data, together with an enormous influx of theoretical concepts and models of collective behaviour. This upsurge enabled scientists from biology, physics, and robotics to start tackling intensively many of the open issues in this field: how is information transferred through a group; what is the structure of the underlying interaction and communication network; what is the role of the inter-individual differences (physiological, social, etc.) in a group decision-making; what is the relationship between organisms and their habitat. However, except on very rare occasions, different disciplines continue to address these problems along separate lines. Recent rapid progress in the collective behaviour field presents a well-timed opportunity to initiate a fruitful interdisciplinary discussion.
The goal of this conference is to bring together experts from different scientific fields—biology, physics and engineering—to help identify new cross-disciplinary challenges, to boost the development of new ideas, and to foster the birth of an interdisciplinary community working in this field.

Advanced Workshop on Physics of Atmospheric Neutrinos - PANE 2018 | (smr 3207)
Atmospheric neutrino experiments were the first ones to discover 20 years ago the phenomenon of neutrino oscillations, to establish existence of non-zero neutrino mass and large lepton mixing. Studies of atmospheric neutrinos are used to search for new physics beyond the 3-neutrino paradigm, including sterile neutrinos, non-standard neutrino interactions, effects of violation of fundamental symmetries of Nature.
Now the field moves to the next phase of high-precision studies, which will enable us to effectively use atmospheric neutrinos as a tool to determine the mass ordering, octant of the 2-3 mixing angle and the Dirac CP-violating phase. In this connection, knowledge of the atmospheric neutrino fluxes at percent level is needed, which requires higher precision determination of both cosmic ray fluxes and neutrino-nucleon cross sections, as well as a better control over systematics. Understanding of atmospheric neutrinos is essential to estimate background for diffuse supernova neutrinos, proton decay, future dark matter direct/indirect detection experiments, and high-energy cosmic neutrinos.
The goal of this workshop is to further explore physics potential of atmospheric neutrinos and support the physics case of new experiments on atmospheric neutrinos. We plan to bring together leading experts in both theory and experiment as well as young researchers to assess the state-of-the-art knowledge in this field and to foster further theoretical, phenomenological, and experimental studies in atmospheric neutrino physics.
The programme of the workshop will include invited talks and shorter presentations selected from applications. Ample time will be given for discussion.

ICTP Summer School on
Theory, Mechanisms and Hierarchical Modelling of Climate Dynamics:
Multiple Equilibria in the Climate System | (smr 3214)
The climate community is still faced with large uncertainties in estimating possible climate changes in the next decades and quantifying the relative role of anthropogenic contribution to climate change. Although most modern climate models are able to reproduce reasonably well global climatologies and patterns of interannual variations, they still struggle with pervasive biases and the representation of some of the climate phenomena involving the interaction and coupling between the atmosphere, the ocean and the cryosphere. The problem is compounded by the limited understanding of some of the physical mechanisms giving rise to both our present mean climate and its natural variability at different time scales. One possible way forward is the use of a hierarchy of models to tackle the most pressing questions in climate dynamics and modeling. Key among them, is whether the climate is stable, or whether internal feedbacks could lead to tipping points, abrupt changes, and transitions to fundamentally different equilibria.
Changes in the oceanic overturning, ice-albedo effects, land-surface and vegetation coupling to the atmosphere, and radiative-convective properties of the atmosphere have all been suggested as possible causes of instability in the climate system. Advances in our understanding, quantification, and modelling of these processes are necessary both for the interpretation of the paleoclimate record and for the projection of possible future climate states. A variety of studies have found that multiple equilibria exist both in highly idealized and more comprehensive models of the climate system. Whether multiple equilibria do exist in state-of-the-art climate models is still a subject of controversy.
A fundamental understanding of key processes within a hierarchical modeling framework will eventually translate into a better representation and simulation within state-of-the-art climate models, as it brings new insights for process-based evaluation of climate model reliability and fit for purpose. The use of hierarchies additionally promotes the use of standardized performance metrics and highlights instances when post-processing approaches (e.g. bias correction) or diverse model tuning practices should be explored.
The school will be based on lectures on theoretical aspects of atmosphere, ocean and climate dynamics, with a focus on the present state of established knowledge and relevant mechanisms.
The topic of the school, Multiple Equilibra in the Climate System, will be the subject of afternoon lectures, giving an overview of the most recent progress and hypotheses suggesting the
existence of multiple equilibrium states, and consequences for past and future climates. Afternoons will also be devoted to practical sessions, involving the use of simplified climate models and analysis of relevant data sets.
The school will be followed by the 2nd WCRP Grand Challenge Meeting on Monsoons and Tropical Rain Belts.
Reliable projections of tropical rainfall changes are key to any climate adaption efforts in a warming world. Yet, our global climate models are a subpar tool for the task: their spatial resolution is too coarse to reproduce the deep convection that produces most rainfall in the tropics, and current parametrizations are inadequate – as signified by persistent biases in the simulation of the annual and diurnal cycles of rainfall in large areas of the oceans and continents, as well as the response to forcing of the past. Nonetheless, tropical rainfall is organized in the large-scale structures of the monsoons and the ITCZ whose dynamics are shaped by large-scale energetic and momentum constraints that involve the global circulation of both the ocean and the atmosphere. This suggests that building a coherent understanding of tropical rainfall can benefit from an understanding of these large-scale influences and their coupling with small scale cloud and precipitation processes. Making this link across scales to improve our understanding and our ability to anticipate future tropical rainfall changes is a key question in climate science.
The workshop, building on the knowledge and practical skills acquired during the school, aims to bring together expertise on large-scale atmospheric and oceanic dynamics, small scale cloud and precipitation processes, hierarchical climate modeling and observation. The aim is to both review recent progress on tropical rainfall dynamics and to identify areas where progress is most amenable in the future given the existing and emerging modelling tools and theoretical frameworks.

Workshop on Operations Research of Biological Systems | (smr 3223)
Aim of the workshop
The workshop on the emerging field of biological operations research – the application of operations research methodologies in systems and molecular cell biology – is designed to bring together participants and lecturers versed in either of the two disciplines that are eager to further uncover the deep connections between the two fields and find new avenues for research and collaboration while gaining new insight on biological functions from an operational and system perspective.
The long-term goal of the workshop is to boost research and collaboration in this field, by acquainting researchers with the existing long-standing problems in system biology, molecular cell biology and bacterial physiology.
We will explore the deep connections between these problems and those that arise in operations research, e.g. the question of regulation of mass production in an uncertain market, dynamic resource allocation, scheduling problems and the impact of different queuing disciplines of speed and efficiency of a complex production facility.
Researchers will have a chance to exchange ideas and compare different methodologies and modes of thinking about operational parameters such as throughput, efficiency, resource allocation, reliability, redundancy, and cost in a novel biological context.
Topics
Scheduling and queuing disciplines – from circadian rhythms to pipelining of self-replication
Allocation of resources to self-replication vs. maintenance
Transcription and translation regulation, role of external and internal information
Controlling WIP (work-in-progress) – Kanban, TOC, and CONWIP vs. product feedback inhibition
Anticipatory systems and their reverse engineering
Metabolic networks and queuing theory
Bullwhip effect and the role of inventory control, forecasting and information
Modern queuing theory
Self-regulating and resource dependent branching processes

The area of the School is number theory, broadly understood - analytic, algebraic, combinatiorial, with links to groups and geometry.
All of the course topics lie at thematic intersections.
The course on Galois representations will focuse on their connections with modular forms and elliptic curves.
The course on arithmetic groups will involve familiarizing students with topics in group theory and modular forms.
Equidistribution in a diophantine context will be the main subject of a course.
Another lecture series will focus on analysis, combinatorics and discrete geometry.
The study of curves over finite fields, and the resulting codes, will allow for an accessible introduction to deep issues in algebraic geometry, with immediate applications.
Finally, the course on primes, parity and analysis will combine classical tools and the use of entropy and independence.
The plan is, then, to introduce advanced students to a variety of fields and tools and to notable recent developments.

14th Joint ICTP-IAEA School on Nuclear Knowledge Management | (smr 3229)
The School is a certificate course providing specialized education and training on development and implementation of knowledge management programmes in nuclear science and technology organizations. It is intended for young professionals in current or future leading roles in managing nuclear knowledge.
Description:
Jointly organized by ICTP and the IAEA since 2004, this Nuclear Knowledge Management (NKM) School focuses on methodologies and practices, and explores various dimensions of nuclear knowledge management. These include processes and tools, challenges and benefits, culture influence, relationship with human resource development, IT for knowledge preservation and sharing. Learning is supplemented with real life examples from NKM programmes in different types of nuclear organizations. The aim is to encourage ‘forward thinking’ and to enable participants to apply theory and insights in their daily work. Pre-training is done via e-learning for a common understanding of the basics, allowing a more efficient interaction with peers and lecturers during the in-class School. Lectures at the ICTP by recognized experts are followed by case studies, practical work and breakout sessions where participants will have the opportunity to discuss issues and solutions. NKM group projects are also developed over the week.
Shortlisted candidates will undergo an on-line pre-training course and a test, the results of which will be one of the elements to define the final list of participants.
Topics:
• Nuclear knowledge and knowledge management fundamentals;
• Developing policies and strategies in managing nuclear knowledge;
• Managing nuclear information resources;
• Human resources development, risk of knowledge loss and knowledge transfer;
• Practical guidance and good practices on NKM.
Methodologies:
• Blended learning course;
• Oriented to practical exercises and group projects;
• Additional continuous education certificate provided by MEPhI University, Russian
Federation, after successful completion.
