2nd CMS Single-Top Workshop

4 Dec 2014, 08:30 → 5 Dec 2014, 19:35 Europe/Rome

Sala Colonna (Napoli)

Alberto Orso Maria Iorio (Universita e INFN (IT)), Francesco Tramontano (Universita e INFN (IT)), Luca Lista (Universita e INFN (IT)), Rebeca Gonzalez Suarez (University of Nebraska (US))

Workshop on single top, including new physics searches with single-top events and associated single-top + Higgs production.
The workshop will take place in two days. The first day will consist of an open session which includes talks from invited theorists. The second day is a session for CMS members only. The goal of the workshop is to assess the readiness of the ongoing analyses of the 7 and 8 TeV LHC dataset, and to prepare the strategy for the 2015 run, in order to get ready for the analysis of the first high-energy collisions.

Organizing committee: Orso Iorio, Luca Lista, Rebeca Gonzalez Suarez, Francesco Tramontano.
