Description

The aim of the PSR workshop is to bring together the QCD communities involved in analytic resummations and parton shower event generators. In particular, it will cover the following topics:

  • Different resummation techniques and their relations
  • Different parton-shower formalisms and their relations
  • The connection between parton showers and resummation
  • Matching of showers and resummations with fixed-order results

The workshop will continue the successful series of meetings at DESY Hamburg (2009, 2012), Manchester (2010), Durham (2013), Munster (2014), Krakow (2015) , Paris (2016) and Cambridge (2017).
