Preparing for the High-Luminosity Run of the LHC

8 Jun 2015, 09:00 → 9 Jun 2015, 17:00 America/New_York

Alice (Other Institutes)

NATALIA TORO (Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics), Philip Schuster (Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics), Yuri Gershtein (Rutgers, State Univ. of New Jersey (US)), itay Yavin (McMaster University/Perimeter Institute)

The workshop will bring together high energy particle experimentalists and theorists to brainstorm about the challenges and possibilities we would have to face with the planned high-luminosity run of the LHC. Among the topics covered are: new detector technologies, their pros and cons; new trigger strategies; contingency plans for each inverse attobarn; confronting increased pile-up.
