Description
The Terascale alliance Monte Carlo school (March 13-17) at DESY Hamburg is designed for master/PhD students and young postdocs.
The tentative programme comprises lectures and a tutorial:
Lectures:
- Introduction (Hard scattering, matrix element, Parton showers, Sudakov form factor, underlying event (QCD radiation and MPI) and hadronization, weighting, integration, phase space, random numbers, veto,...)
- NLO and higher-order calculations
- Parton shower matching at NLO
- Resummation
- Theory uncertainties
- MC-data tuning and validation
- PDFs in Monte Carlo
During the hands-on tutorial you will do an NLO calculation yourself.
Registration fee: 50 Euro (this includes all nutrition costs for coffee and cookies and the school dinner on one of the evenings. The fee is to be paid in cash during the registration).
Organizing Committee:
H. Jung, J. Katzy, I. Melzer-Pellmann, Z. Nagy, J. Reuter
