The annual Multi-Boson Interactions (MBI 2019) workshop will be hosted by the ATLAS group of the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki from August 26 to August 28, 2019. It will bring experimentalists and theorists together in order to discuss multi-boson interactions within the contexts of the gauge sector of the Standard Model and New Physics.
The registration deadline is July 26, 2019. The registration fee is 150 EUR and includes coffee breaks, lunches and the conference dinner. Late registration fee (from July 1st - July 26) 170 EUR.

Topics of discussion include:
    •    Diboson production
    •    Triboson production
    •    Higgs production
    •    Vector boson scattering and vector boson fusion
    •    Precision calculation and measurement of multiboson production
    •    New physics in multiboson production
    •    Monte Carlo generators
    •    LHC Run 2 results and beyond
