Palazzo Giuseppe Palmieri
Martignano, Grecìa Salentina (Lecce, Italy)
June 14-19, 2010
The
aim of the School (formerly known as the "Italo–Hellenic School of Physics")
is to bring together young experimentalists and theorists and to prepare
them with the necessary tools for physics at the LHC. It is addressed to
Ph.D. students and post-docs, in both experimental and theoretical
high-energy physics, and to the INFN research staff.
The theory
lectures will be aimed mainly at experimentalists and the experimental
lectures at theorists. A total of approximately 30 hours of lectures, split
evenly between theoretical and experimental topics, will be delivered over
the six days of the School.
The
attendance fee (waived for the INFN research staff) is 100 €.
