  1. 0. Transfer to Glengoyne Distillery

    The bus departs at 9am sharp(!) in front of the Boyd Orr building at Glasgow University. You can't miss it, it's a pretty darn ugly building. But to avoid daft excuses there's a link to Google Maps in the materials section (to avoid daft excuses).

  2. 1. Welcome and Coffee
    Christoph Englert (Glasgow), James Ferrando (Glasgow)

  5. 9. Discussion
    8/25/14, 11:20 AM
    Which search channels are missing? What will be possible with the upgraded (HL-)LHC that is not possible now? Is the current range of masses/parameters probed the most theoretically interesting one? Viable models (?)

  10. 12. Discussion
    8/25/14, 4:00 PM
    Is the current status of boosted object reconstruction techniques sufficient for the needs of this searches? Is experimental b-tagging good enough for boosted H/ t kinematics? Do we need new techniques for leptonic and semi-leptonically decaying boosted objects? Are there better physical quantities to use for experimental discriminant distibrutions? esp. for states with missing...
