Scope & Purpose

Brookhaven Forum 2008 (BF2008) will be held at Brookhaven National Laboratory in Upton, NY, USA, November 6-8, 2008. The theme of BF2008 is "Terra Incognita: From LHC to Cosmology." As 2008 witnesses the dawn of the LHC era, the emphasis of this year's agenda will be LHC physics. However, part of the BF2008 program will be devoted to related cosmological and astrophysical questions, both in theory and experiment.  Presentations will be arranged in both plenary and parallel sessions.

One of ten national laboratories overseen and primarily funded by the Office of Science of the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), Brookhaven National Laboratory conducts research in the physical, biomedical, and environmental sciences, as well as in energy technologies and national security. Brookhaven Lab also builds and operates major scientific facilities available to university, industry and government researchers. Brookhaven is operated and managed for DOE's Office of Science by Brookhaven Science Associates, a limited-liability company founded by Stony Brook University, the largest academic user of Laboratory facilities, and Battelle, a nonprofit, applied science and technology organization.
