DOE Annual Progress Review of the LQCD-ext/LQCD-ARRA Projects

May 10, 2011, 8:00 AM → May 11, 2011, 6:00 PM US/Central

Wilson Hall, One North (Fermilab)

Fermilab is hosting the DOE Annual Progress Review of two Lattice Quantum Chromodynamics (LQCD) Computing Projects: LQCD-Ext and LQCD-ARRA. These computing projects support the USQCD collaboration's efforts to extract predictions from the fundamental theory of quarks and gluons, and to make comparisons between the "standard model" and experiments.
