An illuminating exploration into QCD theory, phenomenology, and experiments amidst the vibrant Nordic summer nights. This comprehensive two-week program will take place in Saariselkä (Finland) from the 24th of June to the 6th of July. Its first week will be dedicated to theory, followed by the second week, delving into phenomenology and experiments.
Proposed topics:
- Perturbative QCD: hard and high energy processes
- Small x physics and saturation
- Algorithms: jets, particle flow, machine learning
- Event generators
- Experiments and detectors: LHC, EIC and cosmic rays
The program will also include several hands-on parts with practical exercises using CMS Open Data, MC generators, and Machine Learning. The exact offering will be defined closer to the date.
The inclusive price for the school will be 1700 Euros and will include all lectures, coffee breaks, lodging (in a shared room), all breakfasts, lunches and dinners as well as the tour on Sunday.
The deadline for registration is January 31, 2024.
