Welcome

DIS2015 is the 23rd in the series of annual workshops on Deep-Inelastic Scattering (DIS) and Related Subjects. The conference covers a large spectrum of topics in high energy physics. A significant part of the program is devoted to the most recent results from large experiments at BNL, CERN, DESY, FNAL, JLab and KEK. Theoretical advances are included as well. The program is organized around seven working groups:

• WG1 Structure Functions and Parton Densities e-mail WG1 Conveners
  Conveners: Stefano Camarda, Simona Malace, Ingo Schienbein


• WG2 Small-x, Diffraction and Vector Mesons e-mail WG2 Conveners
  Converners: Robert Ciesielski, Yuri Kovchegov, Eugenio Scapparone


• WG3 Electroweak Physics and Beyond the Standard Model e-mail WG3 Conveners
  Conveners: Simone Marzani, Peter Onyisi, Seamus Riordan


• WG4 QCD and Hadronic Final States e-mail WG4 Conveners
  Conveners: Stefan Hoeche, Sung-Won Lee, Pavel Starovoitov


• WG5 Heavy Flavours e-mail WG5 Conveners
  Conveners: Achim Geiser, Marco Guzzi, Flera Rizatdinova


• WG6 Spin Physics e-mail WG6 Conveners
  Conveners: Francesca Giordano, Ted Rogers, Patricia Solvignon


• WG7 Future experiments e-mail WG7 Conveners
  Conveners: Dave Gaskell, Roberto Petti, Uta Klein

Venue

The workshop will be held from April 27th to May 1st, 2015 at Southern Methodist University (SMU), a vibrant university located near the center of Dallas, Texas and in close vicinity to arts, music, and other attractions in the city and surrounding region.

All main events will be hosted in the Hughes-Trigg Student Center at SMU. In addition to the workshop-provided amenities, the Student Center offers ample formal and informal social space, a coffee bar, and eateries.

The logo of the workshop depicts the stained-glass ceiling in the rotunda of the SMU's landmark building of Dallas Hall, or, informally, "The Hilltop". A particle scattering event with similar geometry from a Higgs boson search at the Large Hadron Collider is superimposed.

Pheno 2015

The Pheno 2015 meeting will be held in Pittsburgh May 4-6. This is the week immediately after the DIS2015 meeting, so some folks might like to stop by this as well. Details are available at the webpage here
