Standard Model Benchmarks at High-Energy Hadron Colliders

15 Jun 2011, 09:00 → 17 Jun 2011, 18:00 Europe/Berlin

DESY (Zeuthen)

This is the second workshop in a series jointly organised by the LHC centres at Argonne, CERN, DESY and Fermilab. The workshop structure will allow for intense discussions between experimentalists and theorists on standard candle processes, on precision predictions and on their comparison with and influence on the proton parton distribution functions.
