===== Summary of the discussion from 5th June =====

Aims:

  - Update the 2013 list to include the current state-of-the-art
  - Attempt to quantify the necessary precision for the LHC13 processes considering specific observables
  - Identify key measurements and summarize the potential experimental precision

== H(+jets) == 

  * Higgs pT - resummation of NNLO (N3LL?)
  * jet veto - resummation of NNLO
  * how important is full mt/mb dependence at NNLO - importance for boosted Higgs analyses, high pT
      * what can we learn from [[http://arxiv.org/abs/1501.04637|Hamilton et al. 1501.04637]]?
  * full mb dependence could be more important for top/bottom interference
  * QED+QCD at NNLO - important high pT, boosted analyses (what is the state-of-the-art here? can we estimate the size of the missing corrections)

== top ==

  * top mass measurements: threshold resummed NNLO?

== W == 

  * W mass measurements (expected experimental accuracy?)
  * W pT - resummation at N3LL for W mass measurements?

== VV' ==

  * resummation for pT and jet vetos in W+ W-

== General requests ===

  * specify the details of top decays - NWA etc.
  * should more processes be requested at NNLO+PS?
