Thursday 6 April

09:30 → 13:25 Official CERN visit

There will be visits organise centrally at CERN. Programme to be confirmed later.

- Compass http://wwwcompass.cern.ch, NOT offered this time

09:30 Microcosmos visit - no guide

11:00 CMS Visit

14:15 → 15:45 Lecture on Theoretical particle physics

The ultimate goal of high energy physics - the theory of everything - a theory that explains everything with no extra free parameters. This is after all the guiding principle behind the fine-tuning discussions (explain how the hierarchy problem is the main motivation for the LHC); and it is interesting to contrast it with the other extreme - the multivers. Of course all done without too much technicalities.
- Alternatively or in addition: Dark Matter to be checked with Friday's speaker.

Convener: Nils-Erik Bomark
