The 2022 International Conference on the Structure of Baryons, Baryons-2022, will take place in Seville, the capital of Andalusia, Spain, in the period of 7-11 November 2022. This conference series began in 1970 at Duke University. The Seville meeting follows the successful events in Glasgow (2013), Tallahassee (2016), and related-school in Seville (2021); and will canvass similar themes. It will highlight the physics of baryons and related subjects in astro-, nuclear- and particle-physics, developing our understanding of the spectrum, structure and reactions of baryons using all available tools. Particular emphasis will be placed on elucidating the role of confinement and emergent mass, key non-perturbative phenomena within the Standard Model. Recent developments at existing facilities and those anticipated from the next-generation will also be showcased.
Main Topics Include:
- Spectroscopy of hadrons.
- Hadron-hadron Interactions.
- Electromagnetic and weak interactions.
- Hadrons at finite density and temperature.
- Structure of hadrons.
- Theory for strong QCD.
- New facilities and instrumentation.
We are pleased to announce the Higgs 2022 Conference that will take place in the on-site format.
The conference will focus on new experimental and theoretical results on the Higgs boson.
Latest measurement of the Higgs boson properties and recent theoretical developments in the Higgs boson sector, in the Standard Model and in physics Beyond the Standard Model will be presented and discussed at the Conference.
Contributions will be organised in several parallel and plenary sessions.
During the the Conference, the ten years anniversary of Higgs boson discovery will be celebrated with social events opened to the general public.
The conference is planned to be kept in hybrid format with a substantial in-person participation, in compliance with the relevant COVID-19 regulations at the time of the meeting.
Registration is now open for the International Conference on Quantum Technology for High-Energy Physics, which will be hosted at CERN on 1–4 November 2022.
Following CERN’s successful workshop on quantum computing in 2018, this is the first edition of the #QT4HEP conference taking place to further investigate the nascent quantum technology and its great promise to support scientific research.
Bringing the whole community together, we aim to foster common activities and knowledge sharing, discuss the recent developments in the quantum science field and keep looking for activities within HEP — and beyond — that can most benefit from the application of quantum technologies.
The event will cover a number of topics ranging from four quantum technology areas (theory, sensing, computing, communication), to collaborations with academia and industry, entrepreneurship, training and education activities.
There will also be a series of tutorials and hands-on sessions co-developed with companies and providers, to explore the fascinating field of quantum science to its possible fullest.
We look forward to welcoming you to the event!

The origin of electroweak symmetry breaking is one of the central topics of research in fundamental physics. The discovery of a Higgs boson at CERN on 4 July 2012, following a hunt that spanned several decades and multiple colliders, changed the landscape of these investigations and provided key evidence for the Brout–Englert–Higgs mechanism of mass generation through the spontaneous breaking of Electroweak symmetry.
Almost ten years later, the hunt goes on several fronts, in particular for:
- New physics through precision studies of the properties of the Higgs boson: in particular its mass, spin and couplings to other Standard Model particles.
- New production and decay modes, in particular in processes involving multiple Higgs bosons which provide key insight into the shape of the Higgs potential.
- New Higgs-like states and signals for physics beyond the Standard Model.
The 12th workshop of the Higgs Hunting series organised on 12–14 September 2022 will present an overview of these topics, focusing in particular on new developments in the LHC Run-2 analyses, detailed studies of Higgs boson properties and possible deviations from Standard Model predictions. Highlights will also include a first look at LHC Run-3 analyses, prospects from studies at future colliders, and recent theoretical developments.
FCC week 2022 will bring together the worldwide community working towards a world-leading high-energy physics infrastructure for the 21st century. The meeting covers Accelerator, Detector and Physics studies as well as progress on Technological R&D, ongoing placement studies and the assessment of its environmental and socio-economic impact.
Taking place in a hybrid format, the meeting will give the opportunity to share results, build new collaborations and solidify the vision of a post-LHC circular particle-collider. Furthermore, the meeting will offer opportunities to discuss and plan activities in the framework of the EU-funded H2020 FCCIS project.
The event will follow the traditional layout of plenary and parallel sessions with invited contributions. Plenary sessions will give an overview about the ongoing activities across all parts of the study and serve to inform study members about the updated boundary conditions from placement studies, the latest machine parameters and progress on understanding the physics potential that the FCC integrated programme can offer during its lifetime. Parallel sessions will focus on specific areas of the study. Satellite meetings for related projects and governance bodies of the FCC study will be included in the programme that is being developed. Participation of industry is highly encouraged as addressing the technological challenges of a new research infrastructure presents opportunities for co-innovation.
The work carried out in the framework of the FCC Feasibility Study will inform the next update of the European Strategy while can have an impact on areas beyond particle physics. Thus we invite novel and innovative approaches to address the challenges of the FCCs and contribute in turning them to reality. We strongly encourage colleagues working in the different areas covered by the FCC study to submit their abstract and posters. Register now and join these efforts and contributing with their expertise in the efficient and sustainable implementation of these machines
