- | ====== Topics for Consideration ====== | ||
- | |||
- | ===== List from Fawzi ===== | ||
- | |||
- | * Presentation of LHC results. Intimately related to this is the issue of fiducial cross sections. This has both theory/modelling/MC aspects. | ||
- | * Issues with the WW cross section. By June I guess the issue will be settled but this is also a good example of "presentation of results", estimating the th error, MC error, etc.... | ||
- | * reviewing jet veto? | ||
- | * LH wish list. Update. Issues with EWRC and NNLO. | ||
- | * New Physics and Higgs, what should we concentrate on. | ||
- | |||
- | |||
- | ===== Quark/Gluon Discrimination ===== | ||
- | |||
- | Suggested by Jesse. | ||
- | |||
- | * Overlaps with NLO/SM and Tools/MC a bit with Higgs (e.g. VBF tagging). | ||
- | * How to define quark/gluons at fixed order? (i.e. flavored jet algorithms) | ||
- | * Tests of quark/gluon taggers? (already lots of work by ATLAS/CMS/theory) | ||
- | * Why do current parton showers give such large discrepancies in quark/gluon tagging performances? | ||
- | * Data available to tune quark/gluon taggers? (RIVETized analyses?) | ||
- | * Key future measurements to be made? (at LHC or even in archival data?) | ||
- | * Quark/gluon enriched samples? (e.g. dijet vs. gamma/W/Z + jet) | ||
- | * Can N<sup>n</sup>LO/N<sup>n</sup>LL calculations improve our understanding? | ||
- | * Impact of soft QCD (underlying event) and pileup? | ||
