A new and very exciting era in
the field of particle physics is about to be
ushered in by the LHC experiment at CERN. LHC
has already released its preliminary data. On
the other hand, the data from B-factories
indicate hints for new physics. Data from
neutrino experiments show conclusive evidence
for flavor violation. Results from new neutrino
experiments, such as ICECUBE are underway which
might reveal even more unexpected properties for
neutrinos. From theoretical point of view, there
are various classes of models that can be tested
by these experiments. The aim of this meeting is
to make the graduate students familiar with some
of the mainstream topics in the field of
particle physics.
Topics covered in this meeting
include
·
Deep
inelastic scattering and parton distribution
functions;
·
Neutrino physics;
·
Supersymmetry;
·
LHC
physics;
·
Flavor physics.
The meeting will
start with a three day school. The lectures in
the school will be either in Farsi or in
English. The school will follow with a one-day workshop.
Talks at the workshop will be in English. The
meeting will end with a student session in which
students who are interested can give a short
talk. The students can choose to give their
talks either in Farsi or in English. The details
of the student session will be announced later.
The registration and accommodation fees for
students who present a talk will be waived. Graduate
students in the field of high energy and
particle physics from all over Iran are
encouraged to participate.
Application Deadline is August 5th, 2011.
Recommendation
letter is not compulsory however graduate students
who
provide a reference letter will have
priority in selection. The recommendation letter
should be sent to
