The next Physics at the LHC 2011 will be held in PERUGIA (Italy) in june 2011

2 Perugia is the capital city of the Umbria region in Central Italy, near the Tiber river. 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 very 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 the 6th century BC. Perugia is a renowned artistic center of Italy: it first appeared in written history as Perusia, one of the twelve confederate cities of Etruria, in 300 BC. It is also only 20 km away from Assisi, the city of St. Francis. Perugia is home of a 701 yr old University, of laboratories and institutes of INFN, the italian organization funding fundamental research in the fields of subnuclear, nuclear, and astroparticle physics – and ofthe prestigious University for Foreigners – the oldest one in Italy – for the diffusion of Italian language and civilization. For info contact Prof. G. Mantovani
