5^th Particle Physics Workshop

5^th Particle Physics Workshop

The National Centre for Physics (NCP) is organizing the 5th Particle Physics Workshop from November 20-25, 2006. It is organized by NCP in Collaboration with European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN), Geneva, Switzerland. The purpose of this workshop is to give an exposure to the participants to the current research in particle physics around the world. The workshop is mostly attended by students working towards their Ph.D in particle physics or related fields. The faculty and young researchers involved in particle physics research from various Pakistani universities are also invited. The number of participants is limited to a small number of 25 from outside Islamabad. The limited participation allows close contact and productive discussions between the speakers and the participants.

Generally each speaker is expected to deliver 3-4 lectures of one hour duration, starting with introduction to the subject during the first lecture and gradually move on to a current research topics in particle physics. All lectures are scheduled in the morning with the discussions followed in the afternoon. Some time is also reserved in the afternoons for seminars by the students and as well as by the faculty. The workshop provides a forum for Ph.D students to present their topic of research in afternoon seminars where their research work can be discussed by the leading experts in the field.
