  • CAPP 2007
  • The CAPP school combines theory and practice in advanced environment. It provides education and training of about 30 students and young researchers at graduate and Ph.D. level on central topics at the interface of modern computer algebra and particle physics. The courses include exercises and practical training with software and programs, the hands-on part being a central component of the school.




  • Advancing Collider Physics: from Twistors to Monte Carlos
  • High energy physics is poised to enter a new era of discovery with the start of LHC operations in 2007. The LHC will play a key role in exploring spontaneous symmetry breaking in the Standard Model and in discovering new physics phenomena beyond the Standard Model (BSM). The goal of this Workshop is to develop theoretical tools needed to test the Standard Model with unprecedented accuracy, analyse spontaneous symmetry breaking and uncover evidence for BSM physics at present and future high-energy colliders. Another important aspect of the Workshop will be to support the transfer of knowledge between different communities - new formal developments (like twistors) will be explored and their applications to QCD and electroweak physics will be promoted and studied. The main topics of the workshop include:
    • Higgs Production
    • QCD and Higher-order Computations
    • Electroweak Physics
    • Computer Algebra
    • New Formal Developments
