This interdisciplinary conference aims to highlight recent advances in particle physics, astroparticle physics, string theory, and cosmology, with a strong focus on the interplay between these fields.
Topics covered in the conference will include:
LHC physics, dark matter and dark energy, string theory, neutrino physics, precision measurements, non-accelerator probes of new physics, inflation, gravitational waves, cosmic tensions, and modified gravity.
The conference will also feature a public talk by Professor Adam Riess, Bloomberg Distinguished Professor, Thomas J. Barber Professor of Physics and Astronomy, Nobel Laureate. Professor Riess research interests include; observations of physical cosmology, primarily through the use of distance indicators like supernovae; measurements of dark energy and the expansion history of the universe using optical and near-infrared instruments from space and the ground.
“We are thrilled to host PASCOS 2026 in Sheffield. As major developments reshape our understanding of the Universe, this conference unites world-leading experts across particles, strings and cosmology to tackle key open questions, from fundamental physics to the emerging cosmological tensions.” Dr Eleonora Di Valentino
The conference includes other world-class speakers, plenary talks and parallel sessions - providing the perfect opportunity for sharing and collaboration. Organisers warmly encourage participation from early-career researchers, and submission of abstracts for contributed talks and posters.
