International collaboration and free exchange of knowledge have been for many decades key assets in the progress of particle physics. In particular, international workshops have provided open forums for the sharing of new scientific results and fostering discussion. However, in the current political context the role and format of global scientific cooperation have become challenging.
The online-only format of this workshop reflects our commitment to universal open attendance and removes discriminating constraints such as those arising from politics, travel, cost for participation, and minimize environmental impacts.
The workshop will run for only 4h per day, to minimize the inconvenience across time zones, and to allow enough time for personal work as well as meetings and chats among participants.
In the week after the workshop we will have a introductory school to particle physics, dedicated to students from Palestine (all other students are also very welcome to join):
-
QCD at the Extremes: Introductory school Particle Physics 19-22 Oct 2026
