Physics at the Terascale - Monte Carlo School 2024
The Terascale Monte Carlo school is taking place 19-23 Feb 2024. at DESY Hamburg. It is designed for master/PhD students and young postdocs. Lectures: - Introduction (Hard scattering, matrix element, Parton showers, Sudakov form factor, underlying event (QCD radiation and MPI) and hadronization, weighting, integration, phase space, random numbers, veto,...) - NLO and higher-order calculations - Parton shower matching/merging at NLO - Accuracy of MC (PanScale) - Resummation - PDFs, uncertainties - MC-data tuning and validation
