BSM models in Vector Boson Scattering processes

Dec 4, 2019, 2:00 PM → Dec 5, 2019, 10:00 PM Europe/Lisbon

TBA (LIP Lisbon)

Ilaria Brivio (University of Heidelberg), Marco Zaro (Nikhef National institute for subatomic physics (NL)), Mathieu Pellen (University of Cambridge), Michele Gallinaro (LIP Lisbon), Pietro Govoni (Universita & INFN, Milano-Bicocca (IT))

Vector Boson Scattering signatures will be thoroughly and systematically investigated during the following LHC Run. This workshop aims at reviewing the existing BSM models that could be tested with such studies, at determining operative recipes do be used during the data analysis, to understand the interplay between UV-complete models and the effective field theory paradigm of interpreting experimental results.

The event is organized in the context of the VBScan COST Action.

This event is being organised in partnership with the PubhD de Lisboa (https://pubhdlisboa.wordpress.com).

The idea of these conversations is that PhD students discuss their research with the public in the relaxed ambiance of a bar.

You are all invited!
