Description
The IX International Conference on Heavy Quarks and Leptons ( HQ&L2008 ) will be held at the School of Physics of the University of Melbourne, in Melbourne, Australia from June 5th to June 9th 2008. This Conference continues the tradition of regular scientific meetings, first instigated in 1993 at the Laboratori Nazionali di Frascati in Rome, Italy, under the name "Heavy Quarks at Fixed Target". In 2002 the scope was widened to include leptons with the workshop renamed to what is known as today. This workshop is dedicated to the study of the heavy quarks, namely charm, bottom, and top, with obvious extensions to interesting topics involving the strange quark. Neutrino oscillation studies and new insights in mu and tau lepton phenomenology are also included.
