13. Status of EWK fits

Max Baak (CERN)

12/08/2014, 09:00

This opening talk of the Standard Model session is expected to present the current status of the Standard Model and EWK fit, highlight the most interesting features, and discuss prospects for future improvements in precision at the LHC and Beyond and their possible impact, keeping in mind that dedicated talks on determination of alpha_s, mW & mZ and mtop will follow.

14. The strong coupling constant and PDFs

Esteban Fullana Torregrosa (Johannes-Gutenberg-Universitaet Mainz (DE))

12/08/2014, 09:35

This talk is expected to present the current status of the determination of alpha_s and discuss prospects for future improvements and impact from measurements at the LHC and beyond

101. Status and prospects for W mass and Z mass measurements

Stefano Camarda (Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron (DE))

12/08/2014, 09:55

16. Status of and prospects for top quark mass measurements

Roberto Tenchini (Sezione di Pisa (IT))

12/08/2014, 10:15

This talk is expected to present the current status of the determination of the top quark mass, and discuss prospects for future improvements at the LHC and beyond, from an experimental point of view (a separate talk will focus on theoretical aspects of top mass interpretation)

17. Top mass theory

Hiroshi Yokoya

12/08/2014, 11:05

The talk is expected to cover theoretical issues related to the interpretation of experimental determinations of the top quark mass, including prospects for future improvements at the LHC and beyond (a separate talk will discuss the status and prospects of top quark measurements from the experimental point of view)

23. Status and prospects in higher order calculations and MC tools

Simon David Badger (NBI)

12/08/2014, 11:25

This merged talk is expected to discuss recent developments and status of precision calculations and MC Tools, their future and impact, especially in the EW sector and higher order QCD, for SM physics at the LHC (and beyond). If possible the talk should also touch on issues related to heavy flavour production, jet veto-ing, and predictions for A_FB and A_c (top). Scalar boson production is...

25. Inclusive production of t, W, Z + jets

Chunhui Chen (Iowa State University (US))

12/08/2014, 12:15

This talk is expected to give an overview of precision measurements of the production of top (pairs), W and Z bosons, with or without additional (light or heavy) jets at the LHC. The talk should cover both the inclusive cross-sections and differential distributions or ratios, show comparisons with theory predictions, and discuss prospects for future measurements at the LHC (and possibly beyond).

20. Future of SM and new physics

Kiwoon Choi (KAIST)

12/08/2014, 14:15

This review talk is expected to celebrate the success of the Standard Model so far and give a motivation for future SM measurements at even higher precision or energies (at LHC and beyond), testing with further reach and precision the validity of the SM, and constraining models of BSM physics or possibly uncovering the first signs of new physics.

21. Triple and quartic gauge couplings

Shih-Chieh Hsu (University of Washington, Seattle)

12/08/2014, 14:50

This talk is expected to present the current status of precision measurements of TGCs and QGCs, and discuss prospects for future improvements at the LHC and beyond (including potential benefits from a future lepton collider)

22. Top couplings

Alberto Orso Maria Iorio (Universita e INFN (IT))

12/08/2014, 15:10

This talk is expected to present the current status of precision measurements of top quark couplings (ttW, ttZ, ttgamma, Vtb, single top, FCNC, constraints from tt spin correlations, t polarization, W polarization), and discuss prospects for future improvements at the LHC and beyond (including potential benefits from a future lepton collider)

18. Standard Model vacuum stability

Martin Holthausen (MPIK Heidelberg)

12/08/2014, 16:00

Summary of what we learned in LHC Run I about the Standard Model vacuum stability, possible implications for BSM scenarios (or absence thereof), and motivation for future SM measurements at even higher precision or energies at LHC and beyond. May include relevant links with cosmological models and recent results in that area, such as BICEP2.

26. Discussion session
