YETI 2019 - To Infinity and Beyond: New Techniques for New Physics

6 Jan 2019, 14:00 → 9 Jan 2019, 16:00 Europe/London

Andrew Cheek (Institute of Particle Physics Phenomenology), Jacob Rawling (University of Manchester), Joseph Bullock (IPPP, Durham University), Ravina Baptiste (University of Sheffield), Simon Badger (Durham IPPP), Wei Liu (UCL)

The YETI school serves to promote interaction between theorists and experimentalists at the early career stage and to encourage interest in phenomenology. YETI aims to give a pedagogical introduction to a particular area of topical interest in particle physics. A key feature is the hands-on sessions in the afternoons.

This year YETI goes "To Infinity and Beyond: New Techniques for New Physics". We will look at the potential of new experiments and the analysis techniques that can help to probe the fundamental interactions.
