The workshop "Particle Physics, Nuclear Physics, and Beyond" will be held on July 13, 2017 as part of TRIUMF Science Week 2017. The workshop will cover on- and off-site particle physics activities, as well as nucleonic physics and nuclear physics outside of the scope of ARIEL and ISAC.
This edition of TRIUMF Science Week is being held in conjunction with the preparation of the TRIUMF Five-Year Plan (5YP) for 2020-2025. The 5YP will lay out the priorities of the lab over this period and will form the basis for the funding request to the Government of Canada. Community consultation is an important part of the preparation of the 5YP, and the 2017 TRIUMF Science Week will be a crucial component of this process. More details on the 5YP can be found here: http://www.triumf.ca/FYP2020-25
The program for the workshop on Thursday, July 13 will include presentations on planned and proposed particle and (off-site) nuclear physics research activities connected to TRIUMF for 2020-2025 and beyond, as well as group discussions on current and future laboratory projects. A fraction of the program will also be dedicated to developing a longer-term vision for the TRIUMF research program in particle physics and beyond.
