        Q&A of VBF Channels
        This session is mainly for the discussion of VBF channels, espcially to follow-up the Morning Session of VBF Channel Review to discuss some important channel-dependent technical questions in detail.
    • VBF Techniques and Analysis Notes Discussion

      This session covers all the left-over technical discussion from first two days and outstanding issues critical to the common analysis of VBF. In addition to scheduled talk(s), the exact form and topics will be decided from the outcome of the workshop. The agenda is mainly a guideline for what can be addressed, but not necessarily following the same order and/or limited to the list of topics as proposed.
