QCD@LHC 2018

27th - 31st August 2018, Dresden, Germany

Thanks to all participants for joining us for QCD@LHC 2018 in Dresden. We hope you had safe travels home and are looking forward to QCD@LHC 2019 in Buffalo from July 15-19 (note the changed date!).

Best,
Dominik and Frank

 

Welcome to the 9th edition of the international QCD@LHC workshop, which aims at fostering discussions and collaboration between experimenters and theorists, working on strong interactions at the LHC.

  • Latest results from the LHC on Soft and Hard QCD 
  • Theory of Jets
  • Parton Density Functions
  • Higher Order Calculations
  • Event Simulations
  • Resummation
  • Top Physics
  • Higgs Physics
  • QCD for BSM studies

  • Jet substructure and H/V/top-tagging
    (Simone Marzani & Danilo Enoque Ferreira De Lima)
  • Inclusive and dijet production at the LHC
    (Joao Pires & Bogdan Malaescu)
  • QCD background processes in BSM searches
    (Jonas Lindert & Paolo Gunnellini)
  • Pileup modelling and mitigation at the LHC
    (Matteo Cacciari & Satoshi Hasegawa)
  • Determination of the strong coupling constant
    (Klaus Rabbertz)
  • Multiloop and multileg developments
    (Stephen Jones)
  • Recent developments in resummation
    (Luca Rottoli)
  • Monte Carlo event generators

    (Anna Kulesza)
  • Uncertainties and challenges in jet reconstruction
    (Aparajita Dattagupta)
  • Top quark measurements in CMS
    (Till Michael Arndt)
  • Vector boson(s) and jet production in ATLAS
    (Arantxa Ruiz Martinez)
