Proposal for Support for the Fourth MC4BSM Workshop and the Workshop on Missing Energy Signals at LHC; Davis, CA

该提案将为2009年4月在加州大学戴维斯分校举办的两个国际讲习班提供部分支持。 两个车间？LHC上缺少能量信号？第四次研讨会在？超越标准模型物理学的蒙特卡罗工具？（MC 4 BSM）系列将在加州大学戴维斯分校举行，并连续几天举行，？LHC上缺少能量信号？4月1日，车间？2和MC 4 BSM在4月3日？2009年4月。的目的？在LHC上丢失的能量信号，？研讨会将讨论寻找具有喷流/轻子以及丢失的能量信号的新物理的策略，以及如果在大型强子对撞机（LHC）上发现了这种实验信号，如何识别新物理。缺少能量信号的新物理学受到高度激励，因为当暗物质粒子逃离探测器时，大多数具有暗物质候选者的新模型都会在对撞机上产生这样的信号。然而，寻找这样的信号和识别潜在的物理是非常重要的，因为背景和探测器需要非常好地理解，以便建立这样的信号事件，并且需要重建丢失粒子携带的丢失信息以识别新的物理。该研讨会将汇集实验学家和理论家谁是在这一领域的专家，讨论从实验搜索到模型identi #64257;阳离子问题的最佳方法。MC 4 BSM系列研讨会旨在聚集对开发和使用超越标准模型物理学的蒙特卡罗工具感兴趣的理论家和实验学家，试图为分析大型强子对撞机的数据做好准备。由于已经存在大量用于研究低能超对称性的优秀工具，特别是MSSM，因此本次研讨会将重点关注替代TeV尺度物理模型的工具。更广泛的影响是，在LHC时代发现新的物理学将需要实验学家和理论家之间的密切合作。这些讲习班通过详细讨论和交流想法为这种合作提供了一个平台。将开发新的工具和策略，使新物理学的研究和实验研究更加有效和强大。重点将是加强理论家和实验家之间的讨论和合作，沿着研讨会的主题。所有的演讲都将被记录下来，并与幻灯片一起发布在研讨会网站上，供大家访问。

This proposal is to provide partial support for two international workshops to be held at the UC Davis in April 2009. The two workshops ?Missing Energy Signals at LHC? workshop, and the fourth workshop in the ?Monte Carlo Tools for Beyond the Standard Model Physics? (MC4BSM) series are to be held at University of California, Davis and take place on consecutive days, ?Missing Energy Signals at LHC? workshop on April 1?2 and MC4BSM on April 3?4, 2009. The purpose of the ?Missing Energy Signals at LHC,? workshop is to discuss the strategies to search for new physics with jets/leptons plus missing energy signals and how to identify the new physics if such experimental signals are discovered at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). New physics with missing energy signals is highly motivated as most new models with a dark matter candidate will produce such signals at the colliders when the dark matter particles escape the detector. However, searching for such signals and identifying the underlying physics are highly non-trivial because the backgrounds and the detectors need to be understood very well in order to establish such signal events and the missing information carried away by the missing particles needs to be reconstructed to identify the new physics. The workshop will bring together both experimentalists and theorists who are experts in this area to discuss the best approaches to the questions from experimental searches to the model identifications. The series of the MC4BSM workshops aims to gather together theorists and experimentalists interested in developing and using Monte Carlo tools for Beyond the Standard Model Physics in an attempt to be prepared for the analysis of data focusing on the Large Hadron Collider. Since a large number of excellent tools already exist for the study of low energy supersymmetry and the MSSM in particular, this workshop will instead focus on tools for alternative TeV-scale physics models. The broader impacts are that the discovery of new physics in the LHC era will require close collaborations between experimentalists and theorists. These workshops provide a platform for such collaborations through detailed discussion and idea exchanges. New tools and strategies will be developed to make the studies and experimental searches of the new physics more effective and powerful. The emphasis will be to enhance the discussion and collaborations between the theorists and the experimentalists along the topics of the workshop. All the talks will be recorded and posted together with the slide files on the workshop website for everyone to access.
