Description
The 2011 Phenomenology Symposium will be held May 9-11, 2011 at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
PHENO 11 will cover the latest topics in particle phenomenology and theory plus related issues in astrophysics and cosmology. Now that the LHC has begun its historic mission, we are all excited about the prospect of new discoveries!
