Table of Contents
Tools and Monte Carlos
A list of topics common for sessions 1 and 2
- Data vs Theory (Tools and MC)
- Making use of Rivet → have Rivet tutorial early in workshop (see here)
- Dressed leptons: what is the best way of making comparisons between data and theory
- More sophisticated looks at analyses with background subtractions
- Try to constrain jet content of UE
- Update of LHE file format; more information also here
A list of topics for session 1
- Schemes to systematically evaluate uncertainties in the new NLO tools
- Comparison of NLO tools (continuation/extension of HiggsWG activity)
- testcase: Higgs boson production in gluon fusion
- inclusive quantities: Higgs pt, y distributions, Njets etc. & uncertainties
- testing the high-pt regime
- testing the two jet regime with weak boson fusion cuts
- Inclusion of ew corrections for TeV-scale processes
- understanding the requirements for a systematic implementation
- Rivet comparison of QED correction implementations in Z→ll: ATLAS phi* analysis and isolated photon
- Comparison of recent NLO matching/merging tools
- review tools & techniques
- highlight issues through example processes
- aim for short write-up for non-experts on matching / merging, focusing on NLO merging, ending with roadmap for where further improvement is desired / necessary / not necessary.
- Jet substructure in the presence of high pile-up
- see dedicated page for details
A list of topics for session 2
- Proposal for a new event file format (to get rid of the huge stdhep and hepmc files)
- Extending the SLHA to include cross section information (automate event-by-event weighting with higher order cross sections)
- SMS decomposition: Libraries with simplified models, the associated analyses, LHC results as well as their reinterpretation …. see also BSM group
- Tutorials on ROOSTATS and ROOFIT
- Compressed models: matching and cie
- (fast) Detector simulation for long-lived particles
- Recipes for pp → SUSY inclusive+hard radiation with matrix element generators (how to prevent double counting, etc.)
