Scientific discussion meeting organised by Professor John Ellis CBE FRS, Professor David Charlton and Professor Tejinder Virdee FRS
Event details
A new particle resembling the long-sought Higgs boson has been discovered at CERN. This meeting will discuss the genesis of this discovery, its interpretation, its significance, its relations to condensed-matter physics and cosmology, and possible future experiments to explore its nature.
Biographies of the organisers and speakers will be made available shortly, and you can download the draft two-day programme.
Recorded audio of the presentations will be available on this page after the event and the papers will be published in a future issue of Philosophical Transactions A.
This meeting is immediately followed by a related satellite meeting at the Royal Society at Chicheley Hall, home of the Kavli Royal Society International Centre.
