Discrete Symmetries in Particle, Nuclear and Atomic Physics and implications for our Universe

8 Oct 2018, 09:00 → 12 Oct 2018, 14:30 Europe/Rome

Meeting room (ECT* - Villa Tambosi )

Pawel Moskal - Jagiellonian University (Jagiellonian University), Dmitry Budker - University Mainz & California (Berkeley) (Johannes Gutenberg-Universität Mainz & University of California - Berkeley), Catalina Curceanu - LNF – INFN Frascati (LNF – INFN Frascati), Andrzej Kupsc - Uppsala University (Uppsala University), Derek Kimball - California State University (California State University)

Discrete Symmetries in Particle, Nuclear and Atomic Physics and implications for our Universe

The workshop on "Discrete symmetries in particle, nuclear and atomic physics and implications…” will bring together about 35 world-leading experts and young scientists working on the exploration of discrete symmetries, both in theory and experimental sectors. Questions as: Why do we observe a Universe of only matter? Are the discrete symmetries, such as CPT, Lorentz or spin-statistics violated? How are they tested in particle, nuclear and atomic systems, and which are the implications for our Universe? will be at the core of the workshop which will provide a state-of-the-art overview on discrete symmetries research performed worldwide by pioneering and leading groups.
