LHC EW precision sub-group meeting

Tuesday 25 Sept 2018, 13:30 → 19:30 Europe/Zurich

40/S2-D01 - Salle Dirac (CERN)

This meeting will discuss progress on all fronts since the general June workshop and is an intermediate step towards the one-week workshop of the EW precision group planned for the week 12-16th of November 2018. The focus will be on experimental combinations, input to be given to the PDF4LHC experts in view of the forthcoming discussion with them in December, and on further progress in the area of EW corrections to Z Drell-Yan production.
