25th Annual Conference on Quantum Information Processing

The Conference on Quantum Information Processing (QIP) is the premier annual meeting for theoretical quantum information research. Since the first meeting in Aarhus, Denmark in 1998, the conference has featured breakthroughs by leaders in the disciplines of computing, cryptography, information theory, mathematics, and physics. The scientific objective of the series is to gather the theoretical quantum information community to present and discuss the latest groundbreaking work in the field. Most recently, QIP 2021 was held (online) in Munich, Germany.

European School in Instrumentation for Particle and Astroparticle Physics (ESIPAP)

The European School in Instrumentation for Particle and Astroparticle Physics (ESIPAP) aims at training Master, PhD students and professionals to the high standard of instrumentation in use in particle and astroparticle physics

56th Rencontres de Moriond 2022

The 56th conference in the Rencontres de Moriond series and part of the Moriond Astro series.

The purpose of the Rencontres de Moriond is to discuss recent findings and new ideas in physics in a pleasant, relaxed and convivial atmosphere. The meeting is intended to promote fruitful collaboration between various communities and institutes by bringing together a small number of scientists in inspiring surroundings. At the Rencontres, theorists meet experimenters, young scientists at the post-doctoral level meet senior researchers and discuss all the presented results with them.

The 2022 sessions will be on the following dates:

23–30/01: Cosmology

30/01–06/02: Gravitation

12–19/03: Electroweak Interactions & Unified Theories

19–26/03: QCD and High Energy Interactions

19–26/03: Very High Energy Phenomena in the Universe

QCD & High Energy Interactions (Moriond QCD2021)

Since their creation in 1966 by Jean Tran Thanh Van, the Rencontres de Moriond bring together physicists for in-depth discussions in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere. The 55th Rencontres de Moriond session devoted to QCD AND HIGH ENERGY INTERACTIONS will take place from Saturday, March 27th to Saturday, April 3rd, 2021.

Beyond Standard Model: From Theory to Experiment (BSM-2021)

The BSM-2021 Conference is an online meeting, organized by The Center for Fundamental Physics (CFP) at Zewail City of Science and Technology and Faculty of Engineering and Natural Sciences at Sabancı University.

The conference aims at discussing latest developments in the physics beyond the standard models of particle physics, cosmology and gravitation. We hope that the conference will help to strengthen the international collaborations among the high energy physicists, and allow for fruitful discussions on most recent theoretical, experimental and observational developments.

The program consists of plenary presentations by invited speakers and contributed talks selected from submitted abstracts. The main topics of the conference are:

  • Collider Physics and Beyond
  • Supersymmetry and GUT
  • Higgs Physics
  • Neutrino Physics
  • Astroparticle Physics and Dark Matter
  • Gravity and Black Holes
  • Cosmology and Early Universe
  • String Theory and Phenomenology

Participation in the BSM-2021 is FREE. 

Unveiling hidden Physics Beyond the Standard Model at the LHC

Following the discovery of an SM-like Higgs boson at the Large Hadron Collider the chief focus is on the observation of new phenomena beyond the Standard Model.

Such observations would provide clear guiding principles for the future of the entire field that are, given the present discussions on future colliders all over the world, more crucial than ever before.

So far, inclusive and model dependent searches have not provided evidence of new resonances, indicating that these could be driven by more subtle topologies, hidden by large backgrounds. Phenomenologists have found many classes of New Physics that are difficult to test with current LHC analyses.

In this light, it is important to keep investigating what theories could be further explored. In addition, we need to elaborate on methodologies that display less model dependencies. The use of Machine Learning may play a critical role here.

The opportunity to test a wide range of New Physics opened up very recently: CERN announced on the 11th of December 2020 a new open data policy, which “will make scientific research more accessible to the community”. This opens up the testing ground for new search strategies.

The aim of this workshop is to bring together theory and experiment to identify novel signatures connected to such ‘hidden’ New Physics, to devise new methodologies, and to establish new search strategies.
