ICHEP 2010

IMPORTANT: Registration to the Conference and Submission of an abstract were two separate actions. To register to the Conference, participants used the Registration link (left). To submit an abstract, participants followed the instructions below. One could do these in any order, but all speakers and poster presenters had to be registered.

Instructions for abstract submission:
All contributions to ICHEP 2010 were managed using the INDICO system at CERN.

In order to submit an abstract for a Parallel Session or a Poster, one had to click on the 'Submit a new abstract' link on the left of this page. The 'CERN Authentication' page appeared on the screen.

• If one already had an INDICO account at CERN (e.g. from past conferences), one just logged in with one's Username or Email Address and Password.
• If one did not have an INDICO account at CERN, one needed to create one: one would click on the link 'Create/Check your account' on the left in the 'CERN Authentication' page, read and follow the instructions about 'CERN External Account' and then 'Register a new account'. Then one would come back to this conference pag and log in with the new account.

Once logged in, one had to fill the form with the details of the proposed abstract. If the submitter was not the foreseen presenter of the contribution, the submitter had not to forget to add a 'new primary author' and click the 'presenter' button beside his/her name. When done, one would hit 'Submit'. The submitter was notified by email with the submission details. One could come back to the conference page at any time and login to modify/check the status of the abstracts (up to the submission deadline) by using the 'View my abstracts' link on the left.

Basic instructions for managing 'INDICO accounts' for ICHEP 2010:
All contributions to ICHEP 2010 were managed using the INDICO system at CERN.

If one had already an accepted contribution (i.e. an abstract accepted at ICHEP 2010 for a talk or a poster) and one was trying to create or manage the INDICO account of the presenter (speaker or poster presenter) to be associated with that contribution: one had to click Login in the upper right corner of this page (or go directly to the INDICO home page and click 'Login'). In both cases the 'CERN Authentication' page appeared on the screen.

• If one already had an INDICO account at CERN (e.g. from past conferences), one would just login with one's Username or Email Address and Password. If the Login correctly operated, one was sure that he/she had identified the working INDICO account.
• If one did not have an INDICO account at CERN, one would need to create one: one would click on the link 'Create/Check your account' on the left in the 'CERN Authentication' page, read and follow the instructions about 'CERN External Account' and then 'Register a new account'. Then one would come back to the INDICO homepage (or to this conference page) and log in with the new account. Important: one needed to Login at least once for the account to be activated.
• If one did not remember whether one had an INDICO at CERN account or not, one could use the feature 'Forgot your password?' on the 'CERN Authentication' page.

Participants were requested to complete and update all the information that concerns them (e.g. affiliation) in the INDICO account, as this was directly used for the conference without correction.

Once one had created / recovered the information on your INDICO account, one would follow the instructions given in the acceptance email to communicate such information to the ICHEP 2010 Program Committee. This essentially just meant: send an email to program-ichep2010@lal.in2p3.fr mentioning two things: 1) the ID of the Contribution that one was going to present, 2) the email identifier of the INDICO account.
