Speaker: Dr. Pierre Savard, University of Toronto,TRIUMF Particle physics is entering a new era with the startup of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN in Geneva. This revolutionary new instrument will open the door to many new discoveries that will shed light on the structure of the Universe at the highest energy scales ever studied. This talk is a survey of the important open questions in particle physics, many of which will be addressed at the LHC. It will also serve as an introduction to the subsequent colloquia in the Coast-to-Coast series for winter/spring 2010. NOTE: due to the size and complexity of delivering cross-country seminars, we regret we cannot support desktop AG connections for the Coast-to-Coast seminars If you are planning to attend this seminar, ensure you have registered using the link provided at the top of this announcement. AG rooms will only be opened for these seminars where someone has indicated they plan to attend, and it is critical that we be aware of significant attendees in case a larger room needs to be booked. |
