LHCPhenoNet Mid-Term Meeting

16 Sept 2012, 18:00 → 20 Sept 2012, 20:00 Europe/Rome

Ravello, Italy

Claude Duhr (ETH Zurich), German Rodrigo (CSIC), Leandro Cieri (I), Maria Cristina D'Amato (INFN), Vittorio Del Duca (Universita e INFN (IT))

The goal of the scientific programme is to review and to discuss the state-of-the-art and future developments in the research field of higher order perturbative corrections in the Standard Model and beyond, with emphasis on phenomenology at the LHC, and the development of customized open source software for precision physics at colliders. This is the Mid-Term meeting of the Initial Training Network LHCPhenoNet (http://www.lhcphenonet.eu).

The event includes the Mid-Term Review meeting on September 18-19, where the scientific and training output of the network will be evaluated by Representatives of the Research Executive Agency (REA). Representatives of each beneficiary and all the funded fellows must attend the meeting.
