EPP February 15 Panel Speakers

About

This open meeting of the Committee on Elementary Particle Physics will feature a panel on the benefits of elementary particle physics (EPP). The meeting will be livestreamed at https://vimeo.com/event/4060799

EPP has far-reaching implications that extend beyond the confines of laboratories. At its core, the field seeks to unravel the mysteries of matter, energy, space, and time. This understanding not only satisfies our innate curiosity but also fuels advancements across scientific disciplines.

There is a direct dependence of EPP on technology and engineering. This dependence stretches the capabilities of existing technology to the utmost, requiring innovations and extrapolations that go well beyond any present state of the art. The resulting technological developments have implications much broader than their use in particle physics. New developments also occur much earlier than they would have in the absence of such pressures, presenting new engineering opportunities unrelated to particle physics that can be exploited immediately. These have included large volume, high vacuum systems; sources of enormous radio-frequency power; cryogenics systems; large-scale superconducting magnets; precise pattern recognition devices; fast electronics circuits; powerful computers; and data analysis techniques.

The panel will discuss how elementary particle physics transcends academic boundaries, shaping our world in profound ways.

About

The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine Committee on Elementary Particle Physics: Progress and Promise (EPP-2024) is hosting an Early Career Town Hall.
The EPP-2024 committee recognizes that in order for elementary particle physics to thrive, the field must engage the next generation of scientists.
The EPP-2024 committee will host a town hall to gather perspectives and input from early career scientists, including graduate students, postdocs, and early-career faculty and laboratory equivalent positions. The purpose of the town hall is to gather perspectives and input from early career scientists.
The EPP-2024 Early Career Town Hall will take place virtually on October 13, 2022 from 12pm-3 pm EDT. The event will primarily be a listening session so that the Committee can hear from as many speakers as possible. Speakers will be limited to 5 minutes each. Please note that we cannot guarantee that every interested speaker will be given time during the town hall.

Please register for the Early Career Town Hall if you would like to attend or if you are interested in speaking. Short written statements can also be submitted via the registration form for those not able to attend.

Registration link is here.

The Early Career Town Hall can be attended by clicking this link: Enter Early Career Town Hall.

The Zoom room will open at 11:55am EDT on 13 October 2022.
