We encourage ATLAS researchers, especially postdoc, graduate and undergraduate students from US universities, to give a presentation on their research during the APS 2022 "April" meeting from April 9-12.  The US ATLAS speakers committee will review a draft of your abstract and check for overlaps with other speakers.  We will also coordinate your practice talk before the meeting. Each of you needs to upload a video about your contribution by Mar 24 (https://april.aps.org/virtual).

In order to catch this deadline, there is a list of critical milestone to catch:

  • Mar 17: upload the 1st draft video/slide or poster to this agenda page for the US ATLAS review.
  • Mar 21: upload the revised draft video/slide or poster to the Physics Office review page (https://indico.cern.ch/event/1140613/), after addressing US ATLAS review comments.
  • Mar 24: upload final version to APS (https://april.aps.org/virtual), after addressing PO comments.



The US ATLAS continue strong participations to the APS April meeting. There are 48 contributions from US ATLAS this year: 1 plenary, 41 oral talks, 6 posters.

Step 1: Submit your abstract to the US ATLAS Speakers Committee for review by clicking "Call for Abstracts" on the left sidebar of this page.  This is required by Tuesday, December 7th, 2021 at 5PM ET.

Step 2: After receiving approval from the US ATLAS Speakers Committee and making any changes requested, submit your updated abstract to APS on their site: https://april.aps.org/abstracts/.  NB: the APS deadline is Monday, December 20th 2021, at 5PM ET.  You must be a member of APS to submit an abstract.  Plan ahead!  The APS Membership Department will not issue Membership ID numbers during the week of abstract deadlines.  APS offers a free trial year of membership to undergraduate and graduate students joining APS for the first time (see: https://www.aps.org/membership/join.cfm).  The abstract body is limited to about 1300 characters (250 words).  Please consult the information on the APS website regarding abstract guidelines: http://www.aps.org/meetings/abstract/index.cfm.

Note: A cut-and-paste of an ATLAS paper internal note abstract is typically too detailed and serves a different purpose than that of the abstract for an APS contribution, which should be more like a teaser that helps the APS determine which session your talk belongs in and helps attract an audience to your presentation!  Do not promise anything specific in the abstract that one may not be able to deliver, such as a result/measurement that is not yet approved by ATLAS.  Even if you believe the result will be approved by the time of APS, it is better to make the wording in the abstract vague.

When preparing your slides, please keep in mind ATLAS rules/guidelines: https://twiki.cern.ch/twiki/bin/view/AtlasProtected/NationalMeetingsPhysicsSchools
