LHCb has been installed by spring 2008, followed by intensive testing and commissioning of the system in order to be ready for first data taking. Despite the horizontal geometry of the LHCb detector it was possible to collect over one…

Wasn't this a fun meeting? Yes, except for the rain. This summary highlights scientific themes of the 13th IAP conference: (1) The History of Baryons; (2) The History of Metals; (3) Reionization of the IGM; (4) The Assembly of Galaxies,…

ACAC 2009 is organized by the Athens University of Economics and Business (AUEB) and it is the fourth in a series of meetings that aim to bring together researchers working on all areas of the theory of algorithms and computational…

The status of the CMS experiment is described. After a brief review of the detector design and a short overview of the first 5 years of assembly, the focus of this presentation will be the parallel activities of completing and commissioning…

These proceedings collect the presentations given at the first three meetings of the INFN "Workshop on Monte Carlo's, Physics and Simulations at the LHC", held at the Frascati National Laboratories in 2006. The first part of these…

This is an opening talk for the workshop and is intended to be provocative. We take a stab at the following questions: How well do we really know the sides of the unitarity triangle? What else could we do to improve? (I propose several new…

This EPTCS volume collects the post-proceedings of the 10th International Workshop On User Interfaces for Theorem Provers (UITP 2012), held as part of the Conferences on Intelligent Computer Mathematics (CICM 2012) in Bremen on July 11th…

The LHC is expected to resume later this year. Though results at the Tevatron make it more difficult for the LHC to pick out Higgs bosons, there are other results which are expected. Some of these are surveyed here.

A general overview of the results obtained by the ALICE experiment from the analysis of the $\PbPb$ data sample collected at the end of 2010 during the first heavy-ion run at the LHC is presented.

These comments were prepared during the ICFA Seminar on "Future Persrectives in High Energy Physics" held at CERN (8-11 October 2002) and partially presented at the Panel and General Discussion on Interregional Collaboration for Future…

High-quality results have been produced with the first Large Hadron Collider run on high-pT, heavy flavour and heavy ion physics. These results, as well as the most recent data analyses from Tevatron, have been presented and discussed at…

Of the many important topics that were discussed at the workshop, I summarize and comment on 25 presentations, which I found to be particularly interesting. They fall into all of the areas covered in the conference: basic plasma phenomena,…

This volume contains a final and revised selection of papers presented at Twelfth Workshop on Developments in Computational Models (DCM 2018) and the Ninth Workshop on Intersection Types and Related Systems (ITRS 2018), held on July 8, 2018…

The LHCb Muon system performance is presented using cosmic ray events collected in 2009. These events allowed to test and optimize the detector configuration before the LHC start. The space and time alignment and the measurement of chamber…

These remarks summarize some of the discussion at the NOW 2004; in addition some topics not touched on at the meeting are reviewed briefly.
