Next-to-leading power corrections in particle physics

5 Nov 2018, 09:00 → 7 Nov 2018, 14:00 Europe/Zurich

Summary of the Workshop: click here

In recent years several groups have been considering the calculation of next-to-leading power corrections as a necessary step to achieve precision in particle scattering at modern colliders. The goal of the workshop is to bring these groups together, and create an environment to facilitate discussions, exchange of ideas, and comparison between different methods. We expect the workshop will be very useful for triggering new ideas toward the development of resummation techniques for logarithms at subleading power.

This workshop is part of the COST action PARTICLEFACE and is a meeting of working group 2.
