COMETA workshop on electroweak evolution and electroweak showers

Europe/Zurich
Institute of Physics, University of Graz, Universitรคtsplatz 5, 8010 Graz, Austria
Axel Torsten Maas (University of Graz), Ilaria Brivio (University & INFN Bologna), Rene Poncelet (IFJ PAN Krakow), Simon Plรคtzer (University of Graz (AT))
Description

This workshop, organized under the umbrella of theย  COMETAย COST Action,ย  will bring together people in the developing field of electroweak parton shower algorithms, electroweak evolution, and the definition of complex electroweak final states, especially involving multiboson final states. Understanding such final states is essential for the key goals of the COMETA cost action, as well as for the preparation of future large collider projects, especially lepton colliders.

Discussions will focus on conceptual developments, implementation in form of algorithms and generators, and predictions for new phenomena. Each day will combine invited and contributed talks, as well as sufficient time for discussions. Invitations will aim at bringing together experts with varied backgrounds, to foster new collaborations and new ideas.ย 

Speakers include:

  • Emanuele Bagnaschi
  • Stefan Dittmaier
  • Mareen Hoppe
  • Sofie Martins
  • Jรผrgen Reuter
  • Richard Ruiz
  • Malin Sjรถdahl
