abstract: PHENO 10 will cover the latest topics in particle phenomenology and theory -- in particular LHC physics -- plus related issues in astrophysics and cosmology.

abstract: The aim of the meeting is to review developments, both theoretical and experimental, related to the physics of heavy flavors. We will hear updates on many topics including CP violation, rare decays, spectroscopy, CKM elements and, perhaps most importantly, the potential for studies of heavy flavor decays to help unravel any new physics seen directly at the LHC.

abstract: The International Seminar "Quarks-2010" is organized by the Institute for Nuclear Research of the Russian Academy of Sciences. "Quarks-2010" is the sixteenth in the series of seminars taking place every two years since 1980 in various historical and cultural places of Russia. The coming Seminar will take place near Kolomna, about 100km southeast of Moscow. Despite of the Seminar's traditional name, the program of "Quarks-2008" is fairly broad and includes plenary sessions, meetings at sections and informal discussions on various problems of quantum field theory and particle physics. We expect that about 150 physicists will participate in the Seminar.

abstract: The workshop organisers will gather about 40 mathematicians and physicists, and the scientific goal is to pursue an in-depth understanding of the interactions between Hodge theory on the one hand and QFT and string theory on the other. This includes work relating to supersymmetric gauge theories with the geometric Langlands conjecture, the use of mixed Hodge theory to study the renormalization group flow, and the noncommutative Hodge structure uncovered in the theory of charges in boundary TQFTs. In addition, there are plans to have a series of expository lectures on scale in QFT.

abstract: The meeting will cover areas in nuclear physics, particle physics, astrophysics and cosmology. The program is coherent with nuclei being the central object that connects all items of the program: Exotic nuclei, Nuclear Astrophysics, Neutrino physics, Astroparticle physics. First week will have a school format, second week that of a conference. It is the 23rd edition of a Carpathian school, and the 3rd with the same title, following CSSP05 and CSSP07.

This is an external activity of ICTP, Trieste.

abstract: Boost 2010 is a continuation of the successful small-scale workshop Boost 2009 held at SLAC in July 2009. The workshop addresses new physics signatures involving highly boosted objects which can evade standard event reconstruction techniques due to their decay products being observed as single objects within the detector.

The purpose of the workshop is to bring together leading theorists and experimentalists with the aim of better understanding the physics behind these signatures and how to detect them. The topics covered include, but are not limited to, boosted tops ("t-tagging"), "lepton jets" and boosted Higgs, W and Z bosons.

abstract: This will be the 22nd meeting in this series of annual international mulitidisciplinary meetings which started in 1989. Particle Physics and Cosmology will emphasize the increasing interplay between high energy accelerator based physics and cosmology. The meeting will consist of plenary sessions as well as of parallel sessions.

abstract: This conference is the ninth in a biennial series whose aim is to bring together people working in QCD and strong-interaction dynamics, both theoreticians and experimentalists. It will take place on campus at the Complutense University of Madrid.

abstract: International Workshop on Diffraction in High-Energy Physics

abstract: Biannual conference series dedicated to foundational and advanced modern topics in quantum mechanics, particle physics, quantum gravity, cosmology

abstract: The purpose of this workshop is to offer an opportunity for experimentalists and theoreticians to get together and discuss the analysis of the data taken within the first year of LHC and to overview previous p+p and heavy ion data from RHIC and TEVATRON experiments as well as the theoretical developments.

abstract: Hard and electromagnetic probes play a key role in the study of the strongly interacting matter created in high energy heavy-ion collisions. Recent new measurements and theoretical developments have resulted in significant progress and incisive understanding of the properties of hot QCD matter. Hard probes will play a central role in upcoming RHIC runs as well as in the LHC heavy-ion program that is now getting under way.

The biannual "Hard Probes" series is among the leading conferences in the field of high-energy heavy-ion physics, providing a forum for in-depth discussion of hard and electromagnetic probes and related topics in a moderate-sized meeting.

abstract: Topical discussions with invited plenary talks and selected contributions on rare decays, CP violation, CKM and form factors, lepton flavour violation, heavy quarks, neutrinos, top and tau physics. Attendance is limited.

abstract: The aim of the workshop is to discuss theoretical and experimental issues connected to hadronic interactions of common interest for high-energy particle and cosmic-ray physics. Recent cosmic-ray results from the HiRes and Auger experiments and the expected first LHC data in p-p collisions at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV will be discussed. The workshop plans to bring together experts, both theorists and experimentalists, in QCD and cosmic-ray physics in view of expanding the mutually beneficial interface between two communities currently exploring the physics of strong interactions at the highest energies accessible.
