This is the 20th anniversary of the Winter Aspen Physics Conferences, which started in 1985 with two one-week conferences on particle physics. The workshop will present a multitude of new results from the highest energy terrestrial machines, both hadron and lepton. The theme of the meeting reflects our community's excitement about new results from the Tevatron and HERA, from our highest energy lepton machines PEP-II and KEKB (with their
sensitivity to TeV scale new physics), and the advent of 14 TeV collisions at the LHC.
The workshop will explore the synergies with the new astrophysics and cosmology results as well as the high energy precision results, in terms of both theoretical considerations and experimental planning. Finally, it will discuss the physics and technology of the upcoming and planned highest energy hadron and lepton machines. This is a time when particle physics starts probing new energy scales, and the conference will stimulate discussion among theorists and experimentalists on the implications to our understanding of how nature works.
The conference is open; however, due to space and format, attendance is limited. Participants are selected from applications submitted to the conference. Some support for younger participants will be available.
The Aspen Center for Physics is committed to a significant participation of women and under-represented groups in all the Center's programs.
