The WHEPP series of workshops, which is held every two years, was started in 1989 at TIFR, Mumbai with the purpose of bringing together phenomenologists from all over India and abroad to meet and set up working groups that would identify and work on important and relevant problems in High Energy Physics Phenomenology.The 11th WHEPP workshop will be held at Physical Research Laboratory, Ahmedabad from 2nd to 12th Jan, 2010.Our aim is to bring together active workers in High Energy Physics to initiate discussions and form collaborations in different Working Groups in the following fields:1. Astroparticle Physics & Cosmology 2. Non-perturbative QCD & QGP 3. Neutrinos & Beyond Standard Model 4. Physics at LHC 5. B-physics

This is a sateliite meeting of ICTS Inaugural Event.The Workshop on New Directions in Applied Mathematics will focus on highlighting some novel themes in applied mathematics that have dominated the applied mathematics landscape in recent years and are only beginning to take roots in the Indian mathematical community. Unlike the classical strands of applied mathematics that were dominated by continuum mechanics, numerical o.d.e. and p.d.e., etc., the newer developments have been spurred by recent developments in natural sciences, notably statistical mechanics and chemical dynamics, unique computational problems introduced by very large data sets, as well as problems arising from engineering disciplines of communications and computer science that are defining the tenor of the future through revolutions such as the internet. These have not only hrown open new issues, but whole new paradigms, spawning entirely new subject areas. To mention a few, complex systems, random graphs, analysis in...

The purpose of this event is to mark the foundation of a Campus at Bangalore for the newly established International Centre for Theoretical Sciences of the TIFR. The academic program of the event will consist of keynote lectures by leaders in traditional areas of basic sciences as well as in interdisciplinary areas. There will be two panel discussions on interdisciplinary research. There will also be several public lectures by eminent scientists as a part of the ICTS outreach effort.ICTS Inaugural Event PosterSatellite MeetingsInvited Speakers/ Panelists List of talksComplete Program SchedulePanelsSchedule of Public EventsPublic LecturesFoundation Stone Ceremony of the ICTS Campus *Cultural Program Transport for Public Events Bus ScheduleDirections for AccommodationsInaugural Event Pictures* Due to unforseen circumstances, Sir Michael Atiyah could not attend the Foundation Stone Ceremony.

Phenomena in many systems of interest in materials science, soft condensed matter physics and biology require analysis of processes that span a wide range of time and length scales, from atomic level details of bonding and corresponding dynamics to the emergence of morphologies of interest on mesoscopic scales, occurring on times scales of seconds, hours and beyond. Computational modeling of such phenomena has always been a challenge. Separate models for different scales, for example from models that focus on an atomic level description to those that treat the system at a gross macroscopic level, have been around for some time now. However, models that systematically coarse grain the description or models that incorporate the treatment of different scales into one description are just beginning to emerge. Development of a multi-scale modeling strategy and methods would expand the range of applications of firstprinciples methodology to phenomena which involve much longer time and length...

ICMP09 is being planned from Dec 5 to Dec 23 2009 at the Fountain Hotel Mahabaleshwar in the Sahyadri mountains near Mumbai as a programme that will revolve around roughly a dozen broadly defined themes. The programme will start with the first 7 day section (Dec 5- Dec 12) of the Mahabaleshwar Condensed Matter School, which will feature 4 lecture courses of 5 lectures each, in addition to an evening colloquium series. This will be followed by the 3 day Mahabaleshwar Condensed Matter Conference (Dec 13 to Dec 15). The final 7 days of the programme (Dec 16 Dec 23) will be devoted to the second section of the School with 4 more lecture courses of 5 lectures each, in addition to an evening colloquium series.Advisory Committee: Ehud Altman, Arindam Ghosh, Brijesh Kumar, Roderich Moessner, Subroto Mukerjee, T.V. Ramakrishnan, Pratap Raychaudhuri, Krishnendu Sengupta, and Vijay Shenoy.This programme will be held from Dec 5 2009 to Dec 23 2009 at Fountain Hotel, Mahabaleshwar in the Sahyadri m...
