Dear Colleagues!

We are happy to inform you that the 3rd International Winter School-Seminar on Gravity, Astrophysics and Cosmology «Petrov School» will take place from November, 27 to December,2 2017 in the Institute of Physics of Kazan Federal University. The objective of the Winter Petrov School is to preserve and develop the high potential of the Russian scientific school in theory of gravity, astrophysics, cosmology and related areas of physics and mathematics. Programme of the School will include lectures by the leading scientists:

• A.A. Starobinsky (Landau ITP, Moscow, Russia) New results on inflation and its origin from curvature singularity
  
• I.F. Bikmaev (KFU, Kazan, Russia) Scientific tasks of the Specrum-Roentgen-Gamma project
  
• J.C. Fabris (Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo, Vitoria, Brasil)
• V.M. Mostepanenko (Pulkovo Central Astronomical Observatory, St. Petersburg, Russia) The Casimir effect in cosmology and on a laboratory table
• G.L. Klimchitskaya (Pulkovo Central Astronomical Observatory, St. Petersburg, Russia) Constraints on an axion and on non-Newtonian gravity from the Casimir effect
• S.V. Chervon (Ulyanovsk State Pedagogical University, Russia) Scalar field cosmologies
• S. Capozziello (Napoli University, Italia)
• M.S. Volkov (Tour University, France)
• E. Elizalde (ICREA, Barcelona, Spain)
