Meeting Description:

The workshop is the 5th in a series on formal approaches to particles and part
of the ESSLLI summer school in Bolzano, taking place from 21 to 26 August
2016. The  first of these took place in 2003 at a time where it was still an
adventurous idea to apply formal methods to the elusive meanings of particles.
The workshops however contributed to the serious progress that has been made
in the area. The time seems right for moving beyond studies that take one
single particle and study it from different angles to attempt at arriving at a
more general picture.

The time seems right for moving beyond studies that take one single particle
and study it from different angles to attempt at arriving at a more general
picture. We  herefore especially solicit contributions on particular themes,
listed in the detailed conference program.

As at the previous occasions, we will try hard to make the most of the
presence of many particle experts, by organizing extra-curricular events.
