The "Precision SUSY Higgs Mass Calculation Initiative" (also known as KUTS) was launched in 2014 to provide a forum for discussions between the different groups involved in Higgs-mass calculations in supersymmetric (SUSY) models.
After eleven biannual meetings held in nine different European institutes (see the web page https://sites.google.com/site/kutsmh/), a working-group report was published at the end of 2020 (Eur.Phys.J.C 81 (2021) 5, 450). The report provided a comprehensive overview of Higgs-mass calculations in SUSY models, documented all of the developments discussed during the KUTS meetings, and outlined the prospects for future improvements. After a COVID-imposed hiatus, the scope of the initiative was broadened to include other kinds of precision calculations in BSM models. The 12th meeting was held at CERN in 2023, and the 13th meeting was held in DESY in 2024.
It is now time for the 14th meeting, which will take place at University of Freiburg from Monday, 7 April to Wednesday, 9 April. Participants are encouraged to present any BSM precision calculation they have been particularly interested in since the last meeting. Topics may range from Higgs-mass calculations in SUSY models, to precision calculations of several Higgs-boson properties – and possibly of other observables in the EW sector, such as the W-boson mass – in both SUSY and non-SUSY BSM models. Some time will also be left aside for further discussions on the aims and boundaries of the renewed KUTS initiative.
The meeting will follow the same format as in the original KUTS workshops: three days (one afternoon, one full day, one morning) in which relatively few talks are presented and discussions proceed freely, without a strict schedule.
Warning: Please beware! Some participants may receive fraudulent emails claiming to be from a company tasked with arranging accommodations for participants. These emails are scams.
