====== General List of Topics ======

Since we expect quite a lot of overlap between the working groups we list here the different topics to be discussed in Session 1. 

=== List for Session 1 ===
1) **Higgs-related**

          a)       PDF uncertainties for gluon-gluon fusion
             trace differences between CTEQ, MSTW and NNPDF to see if uncertainty can be reduced
          b)      Acceptances and uncertainties of acceptances for Higgs (gg->Higgs->WW/ZZ)
          c)      Higgs+jets cross sections
                   - comparisons of @MC@NLO, Powheg MINLO, MEPS@NLO, HEJ, etc
                   - comparisons of W/Z+jets with above (+LoopSim) as a testbed
                   - revisit tag jets:  hadronization uncertainties for high rapidity jets
          d)      Higgs+jets uncertainties
                   -new scheme for jet veto uncertainties using Higgs+0, Higgs+1 jet resummation calculations
                   -comparison of Higgs+0 jet resummation results
          e)      Higgs+b's (ex: VH,H->bb)

2)      **PDFs**
        a)      -impact of LHC data, current and future
                -how well do we know PDFs at high x->implications for new physics
                -how Gaussian are high x PDF uncertainties, i.e. what would it take to believe a high mass excess
        b)      impact of/need for an LHeC
        c)      combination of PDF sets
        d)      impact of NNLO jet calculations

3)      **(N)NLO QCD + (N)NLO EWK**
        a)      wishlist of calculations-> review of what current exists->input: what do the experiments really want?
        b)      study of the 'Sudakov Zone', ~1 TeV where EWK corrections may be comparable to QCD corrections
        c)      PDFs with QED corrections, photon PDFs, gamma-gamma processes
        
4)      **Binoth Les Houches Accord (BLHA)** 

There will be an update on this. [[http://phystev.in2p3.fr/wiki/_media/2013:groups:sm:blhaupdate.pdf|Pdf file]] of the write-up

5)      **Data vs Theory (Tools and MC)**
        a)      make use of Rivet->have Rivet tutorial early in workshop
        b)      dressed leptons: what is the best way of making comparisons between data and theory
        c)      more sophisticated looks at analyses with background subtractions
        d)      try to constrain jet content of UE

6)      **Top Decays**
        a)      handling top decays in processes like tTH, tTbB and tTjj
