11-15 July 2012, Euroscience Open Forum 2012, Europe’s largest multi-disciplinary science meeting. From LHC to Stem Cells.
You might be interested in this, given other space-related events on your calendar: http://www.spaceref.com/calendar/calendar.html?pid=7074
Thanks, that looks very interesting
The James Webb Space Telescope project is now “…working to a 2018 launch date.”
Ok I moved it. thanks
Curiosity lands on Mars in August. I didn’t find a more precise date…
According to Wikipedia, Curiosity “…is scheduled to land on Mars at Gale Crater on August 6, 2012(about 10pm in the evening of August 5 PDT, the time used by the mission controllers in Pasadena, California).” http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mars_Science_Laboratory
Or you could calculate yourself from the count down clock on the Mission web site. http://mars.jpl.nasa.gov/msl/
The exact time is subject to change depending on correction maneuvers of course.
Thanks I added it
According to CERN LPCC calendar there will be CMS LHC seminar on 31st January, with topic Update on Searches for New Physics in CMS, Abstract:
We present an update on a number of searches for New Physics, including SUSY and Exotica, based on the recent LHC data, up to the full statistics of ~5/fb recorded by the CMS experiment in 2011.
,could be interesting. There are also LHCb and CMS seminars scheduled at Fermilab (http://theory.fnal.gov/jetp/) at the time of Aspen conference.
The CERN seminar sounds interesting. I added it, thanks.
Phil
The Dawn mission currently orbiting Vesta will arrive at Ceres in February 2015.

I’d like to suggest a couple of conferences on the foundations of quantum theory for your consideration:
Quantum Malta 2012, April 24-27 and QTRF 6 in Växjö, Sweden June 11-14
Armin
The physics run for the LHC starts on April 7th

Update from ATLAS and CMS this week. Thursday for ATLAS.
Is that at the CERN council meeting?
Possible, I do not know. I have got the information from https://twitter.com/jterning
I dont see anything scheduled that matches those updates. Perhaps they are planning a surprise for CCM
I hope so. Just let’s wait for a confirmation to this news.
Link for LISHEP is incorrect. It is http://indico.cern.ch/conferenceDisplay.py?confId=208825
fixed thanks
“Science Calendar | viXra log” Bamboo Blinds definitely makes
me imagine a little bit further. I really loved every particular component of this blog post.

I’m a little behind the gun here since this happens tonight but I thought I’d pass it on as it looks interesting: http://www.amnh.org/calendar/2013-isaac-asimov-memorial-debate-the-existence-of-nothing. It’s the annual Issac Asimov Memorial debate focused on the existence of nothing and featuring two astrophysicists, two theoretical physicists, and a couple of journalists.
I read about this in the newspaper and thought I’d pass it on. This is a link to the University of Pennsylvania/University of California, Berkeley, Aggregative Contingent Estimation Program team (http://www.goodjudgmentproject.com/); they’re taking applications for new forecasters. Anyone with a novel fuzzy logic/probabilistic reasoning program may be interested.
