Location:  Bloomington, IN, U.S.A.

June 28 – July 2, 2010
Physics Department, Indiana University, Bloomington

The Fifth Meeting on CPT and Lorentz Symmetry will be held in Bloomington, Indiana, on June 28 – July 2, 2010. The meeting will focus on tests of these fundamental symmetries and on related theoretical issues, including scenarios for possible violations. You are cordially invited to attend and participate in this event. Topics to be covered include:

Searches for CPT and Lorentz violations involving
– birefringence and dispersion from cosmological sources
– clock-comparison measurements
– CMB polarization
– electromagnetic resonant cavities
– equivalence principle
– gauge and Higgs particles
– high-energy astrophysical observations
– laboratory and gravimetric tests of gravity
– matter interferometry
– neutrino oscillations
– oscillations and decays of K, B, D mesons
– particle-antiparticle comparisons
– post-newtonian gravity in the solar system and beyond
– second- and third-generation particles
– space-based missions
– spectroscopy of hydrogen and antihydrogen
– spin-polarized matter

Theoretical studies of CPT and Lorentz violation involving
– physical effects in General Relativity, the Standard Model, and beyond
– origins and mechanisms for violations
– classical/quantum issues in field theory, gravity, particle physics, and strings

Information about the meeting and online registration, including instructions on submitting a talk or poster, are available on the meeting web site.

Deadline for early registration: May 1, 2010
Deadline for block accommodations: May 21, 2010
