High Energy Particle Physics Newsletter. The IoP HEPP committee is elected to represent group members.
Any member can stand for election.
In practice it has tended to be true that all committee members have academic staff positions, but there is no reason for this to be the case. A recently proposed innovation to try and make the committee more representative is that two student committee posts are being created, and in future one of the existing posts will be reserved for someone on a fixed term research contract. The University of Salford IoP Particle Physics 99 is the annual conference of the High Energy Particle Physics Group of the Institute of Physics. The conference combines plenary talks in topical areas of particle physics with parallel sessions where young physicists can present their recent results. The conference will be part of this year's IoP Annual Congress.
