PASI2012 - Exploring the Terascale and Beyond 
 
University of Buenos Aires, Argentina, March 5-16, 2012
 
At present times there are hadron collider and neutrino experiments collecting data that will provide a new vision of the Terascale 

and Beyond. In parallel, many underground laboratory and extraterrestrial experiments are providing a new handle on astrophysics 

and cosmology. The Pan-American Advanced Studies Institute (PASI2012): :Exploring the Terascale and Beyond"  will present the 

current state-of-the-art in particle physics and cosmology through pedagogical lecture courses as well as a number of special topics

drawn from exciting results at the forefront of research. 

The  school will take place  March 5-16, 2012 at the University of Buenos Aires, and will build on the successes of the previous 

PASI schools.  The target audience is young postdocs or graduate students from US and Latin-American institutions, with strong 

interest in particle physics and cosmology. Both theorists and experimentalists are encouraged to apply.
 
All presentations will be made in English. The school program will  include  time for informal discussions, and social activities in 

the vibrant city of Buenos Aires.   Financial support for a limited number of US and Latin-American students to attend PASI2012

is provided jointly by U.S. National Science Foundation and the Department of Energy. 

Qualified women and minorities are encouraged to apply. 

Mentoring of  postdoctoral fellows is an  important part of the program and applications from young physicists who have received 

their Ph.D degrees in the last 3 years and are pursuing research in the field are encouraged. 
 
Calendar and Details

The  school will take place  March 5-16, 2012 at the University of Buenos Aires, Buenos Aires, Argentina.  There will be ten days of 
  lectures, and free time  for activities in the city of Buenos Aires. Updated information can be found at the school web site:
