YETI'10; Window to the dark world, cosmology to LHC

12 Jan 2010, 09:00 → 14 Jan 2010, 13:45 Europe/London

The Young Experimentalists and Theorists Institute aims to promote interaction between the two halves of the PP community at the early career stage and encourage interest in phenomenology. The YETI aims to give a pedagogical introduction to a particular area of topical interest in particle physics. A key feature are the hands-on sessions in the afternoons.
