Description
Session Type: 180-Minute Symposium Number: 180-088 Title: Large-Scale International Collaborations and the Future of Physics Session Start/End Time: Friday, Feb 15, 2008, 1:45 PM - 4:45 PM Hotel: Hynes Convention Center, Third Level Room: Room 309 Synopsis: Leaders of six international collaborations -- including the Large Hadron Collider in Geneva; the International Linear Collider, a machine proposed to follow the Large Hadron Collider; ITER, a large-scale international fusion effort; the Next Generation Space Telescope; the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array, an international astronomy collaboration; and Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory international energy projects -- address how large-scale international collaboration is a part of the changing face of physics. The subject matter spans much of physics and astronomy, and the nature of each international collaboration presents its own unique challenges and opportunities. Organized by: Lawrence M. Krauss, Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland, OH;Maria Spiropulu, CERN, Geneva, Switzerland Map: http://www.advantageboston.com/MapsDirections/Index.asp
