Strings to LHC III

Home

Programme:

The format of the workshop will closely follow the one which was adopted in From Strings to LHC I held in Goa in Jan 2007. We plan to have mini-courses on a range of topics which have been the foci of active and exciting research in the recent past. The courses will have about 3 to 4 lectures each and will be planned for the morning sessions. The afternoon sessions will be reserved for talks and may be divided into parallel sessions.
