The conference aims to promote scientific exchange of new results
and development of
novel ideas and models related to the physics of the LHC.
The following topics will be covered:
 Particle Physics,
  Heavy Ion Physics,
 Physics  after the discovery of the  Brout-Englert-Higgs boson.
Accommodation, registration, abstract submission and other practical
details can be found
