Europe/Zurich timezone

This one-day workshop aims at gathering together theorists and experimentalists from the LHC and non-LHC collaborations to discuss recent results, analyses techniques, new strategies and theoretical aspects for any description of the hadronic matrix elements. In more details, the workshop is focused on:

  • Hammer, A C++ software library, designed to provide fast and efficient reweighting of large Monte Carlo datasets containing semileptonic b-Hadron decays to any desired New Physics;
  • Inputs from different experiments;
  • Hands-on session on Hammer. This will be tailored on the new Hammer version (2.0.0), if the new version will be released in time for the workshop. The new version will be faster and will include new Python bindings to work with pyROOT and new features to scan over the Wilson-coefficient phase space.

Attendance can be in person or remotely. Registration is required with deadline 28th June 2026.
