published February 20, 2007

Diffraction 2006, (http://www.cs.infn.it/diff2006), is the forth event of a series of biennial International Workshops, devoted to Diffraction in High-Energy Physics.

It keeps up a tradition initiated in 2000 in Cetraro, on the Western coast of Calabria, Italy and continued in 2002 in Alushta, on the Crimean coast on the Black Sea, and in 2004 in Cala Gonone, on the Eastern coast of Sardinia.

This year, the event is held in Adamantas, on the Milos island in Greece and collects about 60 participants from all around the world.

The Workshop is co-organized by University of Athens, DESY-Hamburg (Germany), University of Calabria (Rende, Italy) and University of Torino (Italy).

The purpose of the Workshop is to review the experimental and theoretical aspects of Diffraction in high-energy physics and to discuss new developments. The topics include Experimental results and prospects, Phenomenological approaches to diffraction and Progress in the theoretical description of diffraction.
