CRC 1660 Kick-Off

Dec 9, 2024, 12:00 PM → Dec 10, 2024, 5:00 PM Europe/Berlin

Helmholtz Institute, Johannes Gutenberg University, Mainz

CRC1660 aims to deepen our understanding of the strong interaction, which governs processes involving hadrons, nuclei, and atoms. By addressing fundamental questions about phenomena beyond the Standard Model of particle physics, we strive to uncover new ways to measure and describe them.

We are excited to invite you to the Kick-off Meeting of Collaborative Research Center 1660, marking the start of our projects. The event will feature a broad program including keynote talks from leading experts and contributions from our youngest researchers.
