Dear Colleague


First of all please accept our apologies if you have received this
conference announcement/invitation  in duplicate.


You and your group are cordially invited to attend the Fourth Symposium on
``Prospects in the Physics of Discrete Symmetries, DISCRETE 2014'',
the latest of the DISCRETE conference series (for information on
previous ones see:http://ific.uv.es/discrete08/,
http://www.roma1.infn.it/discrete10/,
https://indico.cern.ch/event/202057/), which this year will take place
at King's College London, Strand Campus, London WC2R 2LS, from: Tuesday,
December 2 2014 till Saturday, December 6 2014.


The topics covered at the DISCRETE series of conferences are: T, C, P,
CP symmetries; accidental symmetries (B, L conservation); CPT symmetry,
decoherence and entangled states, Lorentz symmetry breaking
(phenomenology and current bounds); neutrino mass and mixing;
implications for cosmology and astroparticle physics, dark matter
searches; experimental prospects at LHC, new facilities. In this coming
DISCRETE we shall also introduce two new topics: cosmological aspects of
non-commutative space-times as well as PT symmetric Hamiltonians,
(non-Hermitian but with real eigenvalues), a topic that has wide
applications in particle physics and beyond.

This year at King's College London we also celebrate the 150th
anniversary of the publication of Maxwell's equations, while James Clerk
Maxwell was the Professor of Natural Philosophy here. Moreover it is the
60th Anniversary of the discovery of Yang-Mills Gauge theories, the 50th
anniversary of the discovery of CP Violation and the 50th anniversary of
the proposal of Bell's Inequalities in Quantum Physics. Hence DISCRETE
2014 can be combined with the celebration of the above anniversaries.


The format of the talks will be: Plenary (40+5 min), invited research
talks (30 + 5 min) and shorter presentations (25 + 5 min), selected (by
the conveners of each session in consultation with the organisers) from
the submitted abstracts. The conference fee for registered participants
is 400 £, which covers lunches, proceedings and participation in the
conference dinner that is going to take place at the historic Royal
Society in Carlton House Terrace.


Further details, information on abstract submission, registration,
payment of conference fees and other important deadlines can be found at
the web page

Please note that registration to this event requires opening a CERN
indico account.

All speakers, including those giving plenary and invited research talks,
are required to submit their titles and abstracts through the conference
page before the deadline of .

The payment of fees of £400 can be made through the link
