QCD@LHC 2017 and Debrecen University Symposium 2017

Supported by:

28th August -- 1st September 2017

You can find the poster of the event here.

This workshop aims at fostering discussions and collaboration between
experimenters and theorists, working on collider physics related to the LHC.

Topics to be discussed include

Results from the LHC on
* Higgs and electroweak physics
* Soft and Hard QCD
* heavy flavours
* heavy ions

Theory of
* Higgs physics
* jets and jet substructure
* fixed-order and resummed computations in QCD and electroweak sector (including SCET)
* heavy quarks 

Parton density functions, event simulations
QCD for searches for new physics
