The Memorial twenty-fifth Bled Workshop "What Comes Beyond the Standard Models?" will after two
''virtual '' years hopefully take place at Bled, Slovenia, from 3rd of July 2022 (Sunday,
arrival day, afternoon) to 10th of July 2022 (Sunday, departure day,morning) and
will be prolonged to Monday 11 and Tuesday 12 for the ''virtual'' sessions.
All the sessions (real or virtual) of XXV Beld Workshop "What comes beyond the Standard Models" are supprted online on the VIA platform in Zoom
https://cern.zoom.us/j/4420940189?pwd=L ... RKYW1Ydz09
Meeting ID 442 094 0189
pass code (if required) 628661
The preliminary program of workshop is given in the reply to this post and will be updated and
modified daily as necessary for talk continuations and discussions.
We will also put your presentations on the workshop homepage (see
http://bsm.fmf.uni-lj.si/bled2021bsm/). As every year, we plan to
publish printed Proceedings with the
write-ups of your talks in December 2022. You will receive detailed
instructions on this at the end of the virtual workshop and also later.
We expect informational support from MDPI journals Symmetry,
Universe, Particles, Galaxies and Physics and selected invited contributions will
be published for free, if accepted, in the corresponding special issues.

Below is a detailed information on the aims and topics of this year's
workshop:
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
Our workshop is organized for the purpose of answering the open
questions in the elementary particle physics and cosmology, like
(every participant can suggest a new topic):
o What is the most promising first step beyond the standard model,
explaining the assumptions of the standard model like:
* the origin of massless family members with their related spins and
charges,
* the origin of families of fermions,
* the origin of massless vector gauge fields,
* the origin of the Higgs' scalar and Yukawa couplings for massive
quarks and leptons,
* the origin of differences in masses of family members.
o And going beyond, while explaining:
* the origin of dark matter and its properties
(when comparing cosmological observation, direct detections and
all the proposed models),
* the masses and charges of the dark matter,
* the origin of the dark energy,
* the origin of ordinary matter-antimatter asymmetry.
o How to interpret the so far made searches for new physics?
* How many families shall we be able to observe at the LHC
and at which energies?
* How many scalar fields shall the LHC observe?
* What are masses of new families?
* What are properties of new scalar fields?
o Origin of the lepton number nonconservation.
* What can different models and experiments
say about the lepton number nonconservation?
o What is the origin of the two energy scales:
* the colour phase transition scale and
* the electroweak phase transition scale?
o What can strings and membranes contribute to our
understanding of elementary particle physics and
cosmology?
* What do string theories really mean?
* What kind of understanding the low energy fermions
and the vector and scalar gauge fields do they offer?
o What can the complex action bring into the understanding of the
properties of our universe?
o Why has Nature made a choice of four (noticeable) dimensions
while all the others (if existing) are hidden?
* How does the ''compactification'' occur?
* What are properties of space-time in the hidden dimensions?
o How can one understand the discrete symmetries in
Kaluza-Klein like theories?
o How can all gauge fields, including gravity and scalar fields, be unified
and quantized?
o What is the origin of the field which caused inflation?
o What can new measurements of gravitational waves contribute to
understanding cosmology (and elementary fields)?
o Quantum mechanics and the black hole singularity?
o The role of black holes in the history of the universe.
o Could the fermions have the integer spin and yet be second
quantized fields, obeying the Pauli principle?
o What can we learn from the model in which all fermions
have come by the fermionization from original bosons?
o What are the internal degrees of freedom of the second
quantized fermions and fields?
* What are the internal degrees of freedom of the second quantized
boson fields?
o Many other open problems.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
The aim of the workshop is to bring together physicists, who are
trying to find the answers to some of these and other open questions
from the field of the elementary particles and cosmology and who would
enjoy to actively discuss these questions in a small group.
In the last twenty four years we have organized workshops entitled
''What Comes Beyond the Standard Models?". They took place annually in
July since 1998 except 2018, which was in June. Each year we spent
about ten days, trying to answer the above (and other) questions in a
very pleasant and relaxing atmosphere. We have
published twenty four volumes of Proceedings to these workshops (one in
1999, and then one volume every year since 2001). In the year 2003 we
have also organized, in addition and with the help of EURESCO, the
conference titled "Euroconference on symmetries beyond the Standard
models" from 12. -- 17. of July 2003 in Portoroz, Slovenia. Proceedings
volume published in 2003 contains write-ups of the talks at this
conference.
Bled is a nice town by the lake of the same name, surrounded by
mountains, with many comfortable hotels. Home page of Bled,
containing information for visitors, is available at
http://www.bled.si in several languages.
The workshop is organized by the DMFA (Society of Mathematicians,
Physicists and Astronomers of Slovenia). The workshop is sponsored by
DMFA and Department of Physics, FMF, University of Ljubljana with the
computer equipment and supported by Beyond Semiconductor, and the
last several years by MDPI. Also Niels Bohr institute is supporting the
workshops, and all those who are paying the living expenses by
themselves, if the institutions do not pay their travel and living expenses
as well.
ONE PAGE CONTRIBUTION
You may send a one page contribution to the workshop.
SUGGESTIONS FOR DISCUSSIONS
We also suggest you to write in a few sentences the suggestions for the
open problems, which you are prepared to lead the discussions for, or
you suggest the discussions about.
PRESENTATIONS
It is planned that in the first two or three days everybody will
present her or his work in a one hour talk (although the talks
usually, because of many questions and interruptions, last much
longer).
In the rest of the workshop we shall discuss the open problems.
TITLE OF TALK.................................
We are looking forward to meeting you virtually.
