Overview
The Swiss Institute for Particle Physics (CHIPP) has been founded in order to coordinate both the research as well as the outreach and education activities of the Swiss Institutes involved in Particle and Astro-Particle Physics. A first step towards coordinated education activities was the organization of the very first CHIPP PhD school in January 2008 in Naefels, Glarus. A second school followed in January 2010 in Ascona. Motivated by the success of these schools, CHIPP will organize a third edition.
The research activities of CHIPP are best described by the three
pillars "High Energy Frontier", "Neutrino Physics" and "Astro-Particle
Physics and Cosmology".
Therefore it was clear from the beginning that the CHIPP School should
offer lectures on all these three pillars. Whereas the last time the
focus was on LHC physics and accelerators, the second school focused on
Neutrino Physics and Modern Detectors, the third school will focus on
Astro-Particle Physics and Cosmology. These main lectures are
complemented by shorter lecture series on LHC physics and Neutrio
physics. All lectures are given by international and national experts.
The school is open to both Swiss and International students.
