DISCRETE2024 - (other discrete conferences)
2–6 Dec 2024
Ljubljana, Slovenia
published April 10, 2025

Discrete symmetries meet at the crossroads of particle physics, astrophysics and cosmology. The purpose of this symposium is to review the latest developments in the field of discrete symmetries, to discuss the present status of the field and to explore future directions.

Combinations of the discrete symmetries C, P, and T are probed in electroweak processes, Higgs physics, and low-energy precision experiments. New discrete symmetries are postulated to ensure the stability of Dark Matter or to predict the patterns of quark and lepton flavour mixing.
