SLAC/Stanford LHC/ATLAS Physics Jamboree

Wednesday 12 Nov 2014, 08:50 → 18:40 America/Los_Angeles

Kavli Auditorium (Other Institutes)

Ariel Gustavo Schwartzman (SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory (US)), Michael Peskin (SLAC)

This meeting is part of the annual physics jamboree organized by the SLAC and Stanford ATLAS groups. The goal of this theory/experiment joint session is to discuss ideas, tools, and developments for physics analysis at the start of the LHC Run 2. In addition, there will be a session dedicated to discuss current physics activities of the experimental groups, as well as a discussion on future detector capabilities.
