DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Stefano Vercellone (INAF/Brera)\n\n\n\nThe Universe 
 is populated by extreme particle accelerators and gamma-ray photons they a
 re able to produce could be used as probes to investigate the laws of Natu
 re at the highest energies. To this aim\, INAF is leading the internationa
 l ASTRI Mini-Array Project. INAF deployed and it is operating the first un
 its of nine dual-mirror\, imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes (IACTs)
  at the Teide Observatory at the Canary Island. The ASTRI Mini-Array energ
 y range (1-200 TeV)\, wide field of view (10 degrees)\, angular resolution
  (3 arcmin at 10 TeV)\, and sensitivity (better than current IACTs above a
  few TeVs) are perfectly suited to investigate in depth ultra high-energy 
 sources recently detected by LHAASO and HAWC up to a few PeVs\, shedding l
 ight on their nature. I will review the ASTRI Mini-Array project status\, 
 in particular focussing on its Galactic and extra-galactic scientific goal
 s and its synergies with multi-wavelength facilities.\n \n\nJoin Zoom Mee
