4th Elba Workshop on Forward Physics @ LHC Energy

24 May 2018, 09:00 → 26 May 2018, 20:00 Europe/Rome

585/R-031 (CERN)

Current theoretical frameworks and beyond the Standard Model at 13 TeV energy will be analyzed.

The perspectives of the main current forward experiments at the LHC are on focus, as well as the required detector developments and accelerator operations.

Domains:
