15th International Workshop on Top-Quark Physics (TOP2022)

Europe/London

Durham, UK

Description

The 15th International Workshop on Top Quark Physics (TOP 2022) will be held at Durham University, UK from 4 - 9 September 2022.  It brings together experimentalists and theorists to present and discuss the latest developments in top-quark physics.  This year's programme includes a mini-workshop on the connection between top and flavour physics.  

Young scientists are especially encouraged to participate, and there will be a poster session as well as a block of short plenary talks in the "Young Scientist Forum'',  allowing them to present their work.  Abstracts for theory talks and posters can be submitted to top2022@durham.ac.uk until 5 July, and we ask that more senior scientists alert their younger collaborators to this opportunity.
