BSBF 2024 is a business oriented congress which congregates the main European Research Infrastructures, focused on technology and with the aim to be the main meeting point between Research Infrastructures and industry.
This will be the third edition of the event after the success of the previous editions in Copenhagen and Granada, where more than 1,000 participants from more than 500 organisations and 29 countries gathered together to discuss the future prospects of the Big Science Market.
COSMO’24 (International Conference on Particle Physics and Cosmology) will take place for October 21-25, 2024 in Kyoto, Japan. It will bring together a wide range of cosmologists and particle physicists to discuss current ideas on particle physics and cosmology.

The HEPiX forum brings together worldwide Information Technology staff, including system administrators, system engineers, and managers from High Energy Physics and Nuclear Physics laboratories and institutes, to foster a learning and sharing experience between sites facing scientific computing and data challenges.
Participating sites include BNL, CERN, DESY, FNAL, IHEP, IN2P3, INFN, IRFU, KEK, LBNL, NDGF, NIKHEF, PIC, RAL, SLAC, TRIUMF, many other research labs and numerous universities from all over the world.
This workshop is hosted by NeIC – the Nordic e-Infrastructure Collaboration together with HPC2N – High Performance Computing Center North at Umeå University.
The Banff International Research Station will host the “Gravitational Emergence in AdS/CFT” workshop in Banff from October 24 to October 29, 2021.
An outstanding problem of modern physics is the reconciliation of the two most successful broad theories of physics: general relativity, which describes the gravitational force exerted by massive objects in terms of the bending and rippling of spacetime, and quantum mechanics, which describes the behavior of matter on the minute scales of subatomic particles such as electrons. While both theories are remarkably successful independently, they appear to give contradictory predictions of phenomena that involve gravity at the small scales at which quantum mechanics is relevant. Such phenomena include the Big Bang, when the universe was small enough to be described by quantum mechanics and sufficiently dense to also require a gravitational description; also the process of the final stages of the death of a large star, when a black hole is formed and the star’s matter is concentrated in an extremely small volume. A proper description of these phenomena requires a unified theory of quantum gravity.
A particular model of quantum gravity, and the one on which this workshop focuses, works to understand an idealized situation in which gravity essentially lives “in a box”. It is a remarkable property of quantum gravity that the behavior of gravity inside the box, including quantum effects, can be described purely by the physics on the surface of the box. Importantly, because the surface of the box is rigid, no gravity is needed in describing its physics: hence the remarkable feature of this model is that quantum gravitational physics can actually be described without apparently using any gravity at all! Answering questions like what happened in the Big Bang or what happens inside black holes then amounts to rephrasing what’s happening on the boundary of the box, which we understand well, in the gravitational language of the inside. This rephrasing is called bulk reconstruction, and is the focus of this workshop.
Considering the general opinion of the Baryons-21 IAC members, the Baryons-21 LOC has designed an on-line school for the week that Baryons-21 was expected to be held (18-22 October 2021).
The school is designed for experimental and theoretical nuclear and particle physics graduate students and early-career postdocs with the scope of introducing them to the forefront of baryon-related topics.
Finally, we would also like to make you note that we got an agreement with the Few-Body Systems review to publish the lectures material as part I of the special issue Baryons-21, and integrate it with a second part with selected contributions of the conference to be celebrated one year later.
Due to the health emergency related to the Coronavirus outbreak (COVID-19), this event is by videoconference only.
The video-conference will be performed using Zoom and the connection details will be provided here one week before the beginning of the school.
Understanding quantum gravity is one of the main open questions in modern theoretical physics. Holographic duality constitutes a major advance in this direction linking together quantum field theory and quantum gravity and in particular string theory. This meeting aims to bring together a diverse set of international experts working on the intersecting fields of string theory, quantum field theory and holography.
QCD-N2021 is the 5th edition of the series of workshops on the QCD Structure of the Nucleon, previously held in Ferrara (2002), Frascati (2006), Bilbao (2012) and Getxo (2016). The main focus of this series of workshops is the investigation of the multi-dimensional nucleon structure and related topics in quantum chromodynamics.
This edition will emphasize the recent progress in the field from theory, lattice-QCD and phenomenology, as well as new developments coming from synergies with Quantum Information Science. The workshop will be complemented by presentations of projects planned all over the world at current and future high-energy facilities for a deeper understanding of the nucleon structure.
We are looking forward to welcoming you at QCD-N2021 at the University of Alcala, Alcalá de Henares, Madrid. SPAIN. On behalf of all, you are cordially invited to participate.
The 2021 Nuclear Science Symposium (NSS) and Medical Imaging Conference (MIC), and the International Symposium on Room Temperature Semiconductor Detectors (RTSD), will be held from the 16th to 23rd of October 2021.
The 2021 NSS and MIC is the 68th meeting and the RTSD is the 28th one. This conference is a unique one among many other conferences. The basic interests of its participants are on radiation detectors and instrumentations, and spread from the basic physics to their applications in many fields of study. Especially the application of radiation instrumentations to the medical field is the strong point of this conference. Researchers related to medical physics and those who would like to apply their studies on radiation techniques to medical related fields will be given excellent opportunities in this conference.
Newcomers to this field of study will be guided by short course lectures we provide for many topics. People who are associated with this field for a long time can meet their research friends and their colleagues. We can bring a big synergy in science and technologies by listening to the presentations of NSS, MIC and RTSD and each other.
The organizing committee provides plenary talks given by distinguished researchers and specialist workshops. Also, industrial exhibitions by companies with special products will help you choose your experimental equipment.
Originally, the 2021 IEEE NSS-MIC was planned to be held in Yokohama, Japan. However, the worldwide COVID-19 pandemic forces all of us to stay in our own country. The organizing committee has changed the conference style to virtual, following the success of 2020 Boston virtual conference. The participants will feel at home in the coming virtual conference, having on-line meetings and conferences experienced during the year 2020.
On behalf of the entire organizing committee, we warmly welcome you to the 2021 IEEE NSS, MIC and RTSD.
