30 Sept 2024, 09:00 → 4 Oct 2024, 23:00 Europe/Zagreb

Hvar, Croatia

Damir Lelas (University of Split. Fac.of Elect. Eng., Mech. Eng. and Nav.Architect. (HR)), Daniel Denegri (Université Paris-Saclay (FR)), Ilja Doršner (University of Split), Marko Kovac (University of Split Faculty of Science (HR)), Nikola Godinovic (University of Split. Fac.of Elect. Eng., Mech. Eng. and Nav.Architect. (HR)), Toni Sculac (University of Split Faculty of Science (HR))

We are pleased to announce that the 2024 edition of LHC Days Split conference!

This is the 13th in the series of conferences designed to reinforce and further develop High Energy Physics in the Balkans, especially in connection with the LHC Project. First 12 editions were held in Split and this year we are moving to the beautiful nearby island of Hvar. The organising institutions are Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering and Naval Architecture (FESB) and Faculty of Science (PMF) of University of Split.
