This meeting, normally held every three years, is intended to promote fruitful collaboration between experimentalists and theorists, between physicists in the areas of:
- Searches for New Physics including the Dark Sector
- Phenomenology of Physics Beyond the Standard Model
- Beauty and Charm physics
- Kaon physics
- Tau and Muon physics
- Neutrino physics
- CP violation
- Rare decays
- Future facilities
from institutions across the world, by bringing together a limited number of particle physicists in beautiful and inspiring surroundings. A particular emphasis will be made on searches for new physics which complement direct studies at the LHC.
Expert speakers who will introduce the different areas include:
- Jorge Camalich (Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias)
- Mu-Chun Chen (UC Irvine)
- Giancarlo D’Ambrosio (INFN Naples)
- Javier Fuentes (Universidad de Granada)
- Stefania Gori (UC Santa Cruz)
- Shoji Hashimoto (KEK)
- Mikolaj Misiak (University of Warsaw)
- Phillip Urquijo (University of Melbourne)
- Roman Zwicky (University of Edinburgh)
In addition to having plenty of discussion, we will be producing a jointly-authored paper together during the conference which summarises these and the state of the field. We are looking forward to the participation of those who will be able to actively engage in the discussions and paper-writing sessions, and in turn believe that this will make for a rewarding and fruitful experience for all.
The three day long “International Workshop on Hadron Structure and Spectroscopy – 2022” (IWHSS-2022) will take place at CERN in Geneva, Switzerland, from August 29th to 31st, 2022.
IWHSS-2022 is the 18th workshop in the series of annual workshops on Hadron Structure and Spectroscopy, with most recent editions being IWHSS-2020 (remote due to COVID-19), IWHSS-2019 (Aveiro, Portugal) and IWHSS-2018 (Bonn, Germany).
This year the workshop is planned to be organized in fully in-person mode.
The scientific programme of the workshop will be traditionally focused on the following topics:
- Spin and 3D Structure Structure of the Nucleon
- TMDs, GPDs and GTMDs
- Fragmentation Functions
- Fixed Target and Collider Experiments
- Meson Structure and Spectroscopy
- Search for Exotics
- Future Measurements and Experimental proposals
The opening sessions of the workshop will be dedicated to double-anniversary of COMPASS experiment: 25 years since approval and 20 years since first data-taking.
The 11th Conference of the Balkan Physical Union (BPU11 Congress) will be held in Belgrade, Serbia, from 28 August to 1 September 2022.
Most of the sessions will take place at the Serbian Academy of Sciences and Arts – SASA.
BPU11 is organized by BPU, local coorganizers from Serbia and the European Physical Society.
Members of BPU are the National Physical Societies of Albania, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Greece, Montenegro, Moldova, North Macedonia, Romania, Serbia and Turkey.
Traditionally, BPU Conferences are the International General Physics Conferences, open for participants from all over the world. The official language of the conference is English.
The conference poster is available here.
Inaugurated in 1994 in Como, Italy, this series of conferences has become an important forum for scientists working on strong interactions, stimulating exchanges among theorists and experimentalists as well as across related fields.
The aim of the conference is to bring together people working on strong interactions from different approaches, ranging from lattice QCD to perturbative QCD, from models of the QCD vacuum to QCD phenomenology and experiments, from effective theories to physics beyond the Standard Model.
The scope of the conference also includes the interface between QCD, nuclear physics and astrophysics, and the wider landscape of strongly coupled physics. In particular, the conference will focus on the fruitful interactions and mutual benefits between QCD and the physics of condensed matter and strongly correlated systems.
Machine learning (ML) is nowadays an important toolbox for theoretical and experimental physics, and its importance is expected to steadily grow in the coming years. Thanks to its effectiveness and extreme flexibility, it allows for applications covering a huge set of topics, ranging from statistical data analysis, to simulation and modeling. For this reason ML has been successfully used in very different research areas, such as high-energy physics, astrophysics and cosmology, condensed matter and statistical physics.
Applications in different domains often share strong similarities either in the problems to be solved or in the methodology employed. This motivates a fruitful exchange of ideas, which however is seldom achieved in practice due to the distance among different research communities.
The aim of the workshop is to bring together researchers with interests and expertise in ML from different fields in physics, strongly encouraging and promoting cross-topic exchange of ideas and collaborations. Three broad research areas will be covered:
– High-Energy Physics
– Astrophysics, Cosmology and Astroparticles
– Condensed Matter and Statistical Physics (including Quantum Information)
The distinctive trait of the workshop will be the focus on theoretical physics in a broad sense, including data analysis as well as simulation and modelling.
Neutrino experiments have evolved from single-purpose instruments into large, multi-purpose research facilities with a broad and diverse research program. Similarly, theoretical neutrino physics spans a multitude of topics, from theoretical model building, over oscillation phenomenology, all the way to cosmology and astrophysics.
The goal of this school is to prepare the next generation of scientists for work in this vibrant field. Aimed at PhD students and young postdocs in both experimental and theoretical neutrino physics, it will feature lectures by renowned experts spanning the full breadth of modern neutrino physics. Lectures will be complemented by mini-projects on which the students will work in small teams, with guidance from the lecturers and organizers.
The school will be hosted by CERN, but is planned to run fully in virtual mode. There might be options for lecturers and students to visit CERN during the program, depending on sanitary conditions at the time.
This series of conferences started in 1985 at Maryland, USA. It brings together experimentalists and theorists every other year to review the status and progress in hadron spectroscopy, structure and related topics and to exchange ideas for future explorations.
The main topics of this conference include:
· Meson spectroscopy
· Baryon spectroscopy
· Exotic hadrons and candidates
· Hadron decays, production and interactions
· Analysis tools
· QCD and hadron structure
· Hadrons in hot and nuclear environment including hypernuclei
The 29th International Symposium on Lepton Photon Interactions at High Energies follows the tradition of a long series of high-energy physics conferences. The program features plenary sessions covering topics of major interest to the particle physics community. New this year will be two (or three) tracks of parallel sessions for one day, that will provide an opportunity for additional presenters to give a more in-depth presentation of individual physics results. We will also organise poster sessions where additional researchers may present their work.
