Description

6th International Workshop on Multiple Partonic Interactions at the LHC


Poster

The aim of this workshop on Multiple Partonic Interactions (MPI) at the LHC is to raise the profile of  MPI studies, summarising  the  legacy from  the  phenomenology  at  previous  hadron  colliders, reviewing  the  early  results  from  the  LHC  and  fostering  contact  between  the  theoretical  and experimental communities.

MPI  are  experiencing  a  growing  popularity  and  are widely invoked to  account for  observations that  cannot  be  explained  otherwise:  the  activity  of  the  Underlying Event,  the rates for multiple heavy flavour production, the survival probability of large rapidity gaps in hard diffraction, etc. At the same time, the implementation of MPI effects in Monte Carlo generators is quickly proceeding at an increasing level of sophistication and complexity, which can have far reaching implications for LHC physics. The ultimate ambition of this workshop is to promote MPI as a unifying concept between  apparently  distinct  lines  of  research,  to  profit  from  experimental  progress  in  order  to constrain  their implementation  in  models,  and  to  evaluate  their  impact  on  the  LHC  physics program.

Topics

  • Phenomenology of MPI processes and multiparton distributions
  • Considerations for the description of MPI in QCD
  • Measuring multiple partonic interactions
  • Experimental results on inelastic hadronic collisions: underlying event, minimum bias, forward energy flow
  • Monte Carlo development and tuning
  • Connections with low x, diffraction, heavy ­ion physics and cosmic rays
