DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Gilvan Augusto Alves (CBPF -  Brazilian Center for  
 Physics Research (BR))\, Sandro Fonseca (Universidade do Estado do Rio  de
  Janeiro (BR))\, Luiz Mundim (Universidade do Estado do Rio  de Janeiro (B
 R))\n\nAbstract:\nThe experimental high energy physics in India was initia
 ted by Dr. Homi Jahangir Bhabha (who is known for the Bhabha scattering) u
 sing the balloon flights as well as using  GM counters in commercial flig
 hts. Then he has initiated a series of experiments at Kolar Gold field\, w
 hich was the deepest underground laboratory during sixties to nineties as 
 well as experiments based on the extensive air showers and cherenkov detec
 tors. In absence of an accelerator in India\, we are participating in diff
 erent experiments in international laboratories\, e.g.\, L3\, D0\, CMS\, B
 elle(-II)\, but in parallel enhanced the infrastructures for home grown co
 smic ray experiments. In the recent time\, there are a few initiatives in 
 neutrino physics using the atmospheric neutrino as well as reactor neutrin
 o and also for the search of dark matter. \nIn his talk\, I will give a b
 rief overview of those experiments\, with an emphasis of the instrumentati
 on for the homegrown experiment as well as international participations an
 d how mutually benefited from the participation from this national and int
 ernational collaborations. I will end my talk with our future physics goal
 s and possible new collaborations.\n\nhttps://indico.global/event/18061/
