Hello EF Conveners,
We will have our weekly EF Convener's phone call tomorrow, Thursday.
Energy Frontier Conveners' meeting
May 16: 11:00 PDT / 2:00 EDT
Contact information:
You call: domestic... (877)287-0283
international...(303)433-0165
participant code: 290-043
We will start the meeting promptly and end promptly after 1 hour.
Agenda items
0. Update on plans for Seattle
In particular:
- Status of plenary and panel invitations
- Status of invitations to CF and IF overlap people - what is it?
1. Discussion of ATLAS and CMS whitepapers and schedule
2. Status of background sample generation...Meenakshi will summarize
3. Upcoming (in an hour) discussion with overall Snowmass conveners.
4. AOB?
5. A couple more questions from CF conveners:
• HE5. What kind of slop is present when we tune tools such as Pythia to handle non-perturbative QCD at colliders? Do current uncertainty estimations really do justice or are there systematic effects in the modeling/choice of tool that could be larger? Is it possible we are tuning away subtle interesting and novel effects from new physics? How can we be sure?
• HE6. What is the reasonable target for flavor and CP violation, given no hints for any BSM effects in this direction?
Thank you,
Chip and Michael
