He wrote us the lastletterfromtheHospital.Hepromotedand organized the Frontiers of Fundamental Physics (FFP15) in Orihuela, offering us a perfect organization and hospitality. We remember him as a very active colleague with particular attention to science education and informal learning. Since 2012 he was Pedagogical Director of Teaching and Interactive Museum of Science Vega Baja del Segura of Valencia (MUDIC-VBS-CV) and head of the Department of Physics and Chemistry of the IES “Thader” of Orihuela (Alicante). He received the award for Ciencia en Acción. Granada. 2009 with the work Stand on contest: Pesando astronautas. Promoterandresponsiblefor manyprojectin Physics and Chemistry Education, he carried out many teacher education courses and initiatives to promote the MUDIC Museum. He never spared himself in his work and has always been willing to promote social initiatives for scientific education. He was passionate about optics and astronomy. His sympathy and generosity made him a man loved and appreciated by all. We will always rememberhimastheonewhogaveusaloton the human and scientific level. JesúsCarnicerMurilloduringtheopeningceremonyoftheFundamentalFrontiersofPhysics15in Orihuela(Spain) Preface International Frontiers of Fundamental Physics Symposium Series (Fifteenth in the Series, Orihuela) For over a decade the International Symposium Series Frontiers of Fundamental Physics has attracted some of the greatest physicists in the world as well as many other eminent physicists. The broad objective of the series has been to enable scholars working in slightly different areas to meet on a single platform and exchangeideasandstatusreportsandevendissentingviews. TheareascoveredhaveincludedAstronomyandAstrophysics,ParticlePhysics, Theoretical Physics, Gravitation and Cosmology, Computational Physics, and related areas. The symposia have been held in India (multiple), Italy (multiple), Spain,Canada,Australia,andFrance(multiple). The eminent physicists who have delivered special lectures over the years, sometimes more than once, have included Nobel Laureates, professors G.’t Hooft, S.Chu,CharlesTownes,KlausvonKlitzing,PierredeGennes,DouglasDOsheroff, SirHarryKroto,SirTonyLeggett,andalsothelikesofProf.YuvalNe’eman,Prof. J. Pati, Prof. John Ellis, Prof. Asoke Sen, and several other prominent scholars. Therehavealsobeencontributedpapersandposters. The selected papers books of almost all the symposia in the series have been publishedbytheUniversitiesPress(OrientLongman),KluwerAcademic,Springer, andtheAmericanInstituteofPhysics. Increasingly over the years, sessions involving students and physics education researchhavealsobeenincluded.InthepastphysicistsfromIndiaandotherAsian countries including Japan and the Middle East, Europe, Russia, the USA, South America,andelsewherehavepresentedpapers. vii viii Preface International OrganizingBoard: Prof. D.D.
