Rare Processes and Precision Frontier Kick-off Workshop

Monday 27 Jul 2020, 10:00 → 18:30 US/Eastern

Virtual

Alexey Petrov (Wayne State University), Marina Artuso (syracuse university), Robert Bernstein (Fermilab)

This workshop will kick off the activities of the 2021 Rare Processes and Precision Frontier (RPF). The goal of this workshop is to define strategy of the Frontier and its Topical Groups. Talks will be given by the Frontier and Topical Group co-convenors with plenty of time is allocated for discussion with the community. We will discuss submission of letters of intents and contributed papers within the Frontier and other topics.  The video recording is at https://projects-docdb.fnal.gov/cgi-bin/ShowDocument?docid=7008

PLEASE NOTE:

The Workshop will take place over Zoom.  The Zoom channel link will be sent to all registered participants by e-mail on July 26.

Alternatively, you can

1. go to the snowmass21 slack workspace in the rare_precision_frontier_meetings channel for the Zoom link
2. email a convener (email links below).  

We apologize for the inconvenience. The indirection is required for security from Zoom-bombing.  We also have enabled the waiting room feature.
