This volume addresses the important questions at the interface of particle physics, cosmology and nuclear astrophysics. It includes the latest results from LEP 2, primordial nucleosynthesis and dark matter, experiments to measure the cosmic background radiation and experiments in the laboratory with radioactive beams to ascertain the importance of astrophysics in the universe. Also presented are the new results at highest momentum transfer in positron-proton collisions from HERA.

The Lake Louise Winter Institute is held annually to explore recent trends in physics. Pedagogical and review lectures are presented by invited experts. A topical workshop is held in conjunction with the Institute, with contributed presentations by participants.

This volume contains pedagogical lectures on particle physics, nuclear astrophysics, relativistic heavy ion interactions and gravitational waves. In addition, numerous contributions provide up-to-date information on new experimental results at colliders, underground laboratories and nuclear astrophysics. This combination of pedagogical talks and topical short talks provide a comprehensive amount of information to the researchers.

This volume explores the recent trends in particle physics and cosmology. The invited lecturers include D Caldwell, A Linde, A B MacDonald, J Peebles, K Rolfs and D Schramm.

This proceedings volume contains the latest results from the field of particle physics. The contributions cover the current status of all the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) experiments, the implications of the LHC for cosmology, and the search for dark matter and nuclear astrophysics. It also includes work on the current status of the future International Linear Collider (ILC).

The Lake Louise Winter Institute is held annually to explore recent trends in physics in an informal setting. Pedagogical and review lectures are presented by invited experts. A topical workshop is held in conjunction with the Institute, with contributed presentations by participants. It concentrates on areas related to the invited lectures. Participants are encouraged to present material that includes recent developments in experimental and theoretical physics.
