The analyses of the first 1-2/fb of Large Hadron Collider (LHC) data are already having significant impacts on a wide range of models. In this talk I give my perspective on why we expect to find new physics at the LHC, and how such a…

The status of the LHCb experiment is presented. The experiment has been taking data since the LHC startup. The performances of the various sub-detectors are discussed and a preliminary measurement of the b cross-section is reported. The…
In this talk, I review progress in experimental QCD in the last year, concentrating on the results and phenomenology of the first year of running of the LHC.
We give a brief overview of our current theoretical understanding of ultra-relativistic heavy ion collision and the properties of super-hot nuclear matter. We focus on several issues that have been discussed in connection with experimental…
On March 19-21, 1998, a workshop devoted to questions of the pomeron and the odderon in high energy scattering was held in Heidelberg. This note gives a personal account of some of the issues discussed at this workshop. Of course,…

Recent results of the ATLAS experiment at LHC on hadron spectroscopy, including exotic states, are presented. Comparison of the results with various theoretical predictions is discussed.
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.
The status of some of the recently discovered heavy hadrons is presented.
We discuss first the discovery of the odderon by the TOTEM and D0 collaborations. We then describe the gap between jets measurements sensitive to the high gluon density regime and the possible observation of saturation phenomenon in Pb Pb…
