Scientific school for PhD students specializing in theoretical physics will take place in Yerevan on October 6-10.

About 40 participants from Armenia, Georgia, Germany, India, Iran, Russia and Turkey will gather at the the Guest House of Yerevan State University.

They will listen lectures and participate in the seminars on the topical problems of  the theory of elementary particles. Series of lectures will be given by several prominent experts in  this field from Germany, Russia and U.S.

The students will have a deep and multilateral insight into the most fundamental structure of the matter at the distances, much smaller than the size of atoms and nuclei.

This is the second school of this type. The history started in 2013 in Germany, when at the initiative and under the coordination of Professor Ulf Meissner, head of the Theoretical Physics Department at the University of Bonn, a new Regional Training Network in theoretical physics sponsored by the Volkswagen Foundation was established.

An active role in organizing and supervising the practical work of the network is played by  Professor Akaki Rusetsky from University of Bonn,  who himself started his scientific career in Tbilisi.

The groups of physicists  in Tbilisi University lead by Professor Mirian Tabidze and in Yerevan University  lead by Professor Armen Nersessian have become the parts of the network. Soon after that the  Department of theoretical particle physics at the University of Siegen chaired by Professor Thomas Mannel joined the collaboration.

The group of theorists from Siegen includes also Professor Alexander Khodjamirian who was earlier working at the Yerevan Physics Institute.

Currently, the Network unites physicists from the Universities of Bonn and Siegen in Germany with their colleagues from the faculties of physics at the Tbilisi and Yerevan State Universities.
