GENERAL INFORMATION
This is the sixth Conference in the series started in Prague in 2003 and held in Prague (2003),
Vienna (2004), Cracow (2006) , Split (2008) and in Hamburg in 2010.
Perugia is the capital city of the Umbria region in central Italy, near the Tiber river. In tourist
literature Umbria is sometimes called “il cuore verde d'Italia”, i.e. the green heart of Italy. The
phrase, taken from a poem by G. Carducci, is quite appropriate since the modern administrative
region is the only one to have neither a coast nor a border with a foreign country, and is famously
green. The region is named from the Umbri tribe who settled there in protohistoric times (6th
century BC). Perugia is a notable artistic center of Italy: it first appears in written history as
Perusia, one of the twelve confederate cities of Etruria, in about 300 BC. It is also only 20 km away
from Assisi, the city of St. Francis.
Perugia is home of major universities, laboratories and institutes of INFN (Italian National Institute
for Nuclear Physics), the government organization funding fundamental research in the fields of sub
nuclear, nuclear, and astroparticle physics – as well as of the prestigious University for Foreigners
– the oldest one in Italy – for the diffusion of Italian language and civilization.
