Paths for Discovery at the LHC - USATLAS Workshop 2015 Open Day

Tuesday Jun 23, 2015, 8:00 AM → 9:00 PM US/Central

University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign

This open day is part of the annual US ATLAS Workshop, held at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign between June 23rd and 26th, 2015.

The focus is on directions for searches for new physics in Run 2. It includes guest speakers who are theorists and from the CMS experiment.
