Workshop in High Energy Physics Phenomenology (WHEPP XVII), IIT Gandhinagar

2 Jan 2024, 14:00 → 11 Jan 2024, 18:00 Asia/Kolkata

Baradhwaj Coleppa (IIT Gandhinagar), Rusa Mandal, Vinod Chandra (IIT Gandhinagar)

The Workshop in High Energy Physics Phenomenology (WHEPP) is a series of international workshops on Particle Physics, with the main focus being on particle physics phenomenology and its relation to both formal theory and experiment. They are held every alternate years and constitute the most important international event in particle physics phenomenology held regularly in India. The activities of this workshop cover the entire area of particle physics divided into various working groups according to topics. The present edition will be held at IIT Gandhinagar during January 2 - 11, 2024.
