Dr Teppei Katori, Kings College London
Neutrino physics is one of the most flourishing fields in particle physics. Neutrinos are elementary particles of nature, and scientists found they have mass. This was the topic of the 2015 Nobel prize, and is the only clear evidence for this mass beyond the Standard Model of particle physics. Scientists all over the world study properties of neutrinos or use neutrinos as a new tool to investigate astrophysical objects and fundamental properties of the universe. In this talk Dr Katori will review particle physics and the status of the most exciting neutrino projects in the world.
This event may also be delivered as an online webinar. If necessary due to Coronavirus or venue restrictions it will be an online webinar only.
A combined annual meeting of the IOP Astroparticle Physics Group, the High Energy Particle Physics Group and the Nuclear Physics Group.
From 12-15 April 2021, the Institute of Physics will be bringing together the UK Nuclear Physics, High Energy Particle Physics and Astroparticle Physics communities for a joint annual conference. Due to the ongoing Covid situation, this meeting will be delivered in an entirely online format. The meeting will feature keynote and invited talks from major national and international speakers, as well as extensive opportunities for contributed talks. Poster sessions will be presented using a virtual environment to promote social interaction, and updates and discussions with senior members of the Science and Technology Facilities Council will be provided at a Town Meeting.
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.
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.
The Neutrino Telescopes Workshop dates back to 1988 when Prof. Milla Baldo Ceolin conceived it and launched the first edition.
The 2021 edition will focus to the original, at the time pioneering, topics of the workshop: Large Detectors for Neutrino Astrophysics, Neutrino Physics and Cosmology.
Due to Covid19 – Sars-Cov-2 circumstances, it will be held online. Registration is free but mandatory
Abstract submission for contributed talks and flash talks is now open. Conference proceedings will be published under the Zenodo platform.
The XIX International Workshop on Neutrino Telescopes is organized by INFN Sezione di Padova and by the Physics and Astronomy Department of Padova University.
The Future Circular Collider Innovation Study (FCCIS) will deliver a design and an implementation plan for a new research infrastructure, consisting of a 100 km long, circular tunnel and a dozen surface sites. It will initially host an electron-positron particle collider. With an energy frontier hadron collider as a second step, it can serve a world-wide community through the end of the 21st century. This project will validate the key performance enablers at particle accelerators.
Part of this event is the 4th FCC Physics and Experiments Workshop (dedicated agenda and registration: click here)
This will be a remote-only event using Zoom for webcast.
Presentations for non physics or theory activities are on invitation only.
