SMEFT course

18 Nov 2024, 13:00 → 22 Nov 2024, 17:00 Europe/Lisbon

4305 - Higgs Centre Seminar Room (JCMB)

Julia Silva (University of Edinburgh)

Are you interested in learning about Standard Model Effective Field Theory (SMEFT)? Look no further! Here is a short course on SMEFT: its theoretical foundations and its use in collider physics analyses.

We are also planning a discussion on the work being done on/with SMEFT in the PPT and PPE groups and possible synergies. This shall follow Dominik's lecture on Friday. More details shall be advertised soon. 

Coffee/tea and cake will be provided!

 

If you cannot be with us in person, join us via Zoom, details will be emailed to participants. 

 

Meeting ID: 696 3398 1359
