 ool in 1995 with participation of Vietnamese and foreign students. The sch
 ool is also funded by the Abdus Salam International Centre for Theoretical
  Physics (ICTP) and the Asia-Pacific Centre for Theoretical Physics (APCTP
 )\, Pohang\, Korea\, as an external activity.\n\nThe 24th VSOP will be dev
 oted to particle physics and cosmology\, both theory and experiment. In ad
 dition to fundamental knowledge of Quantum Field Theory\, Standard Model (
 SM)\, QCD and Monte Carlo methods\, the lectures will cover experimental m
 ethods for collider searches at the LHC\, theories beyond the SM\, cosmolo
 gy and dark matter. \n\nReception: on 19 August at 19:00\, all students\,
  lecturers\, and organizers meet and have dinner at Seagull hotel. Student
 s should walk from Thien Tan hotel to Seagull hotel.\n\nLecture hall: ICIS
