[Cuga] REF 2015 announcement - A message from Markus Diehl

[Lorelei Chopard]

Hamburg August 2015


Dear friends

We would like to draw your attention to the next workshop on

Resummation, Evolution, Factorization (REF 2015)
(https://indico.desy.de/conferenceDisplay.py?confId=12707)

   2-5 Nov 2015 at DESY (Hamburg).

This workshop is the 2nd in a series of workshops `Resummation, Evolution,
Factorization' with the goal to organize a discussion between the experts from
the communities specializing, on the one hand, in the investigation of the
nucleon structure based on the Transverse-Momentum Dependent framework (TMD)
and, on the other hand, in various methods of dealing with the unintegrated
Parton Distribution Functions (uPDF) in the small-x regime. Given that these
two large communities attempt to address quite overlapping physical phenomena
by means of different languages, a strong demand arises for mutual
understanding, promoting the possible development of joint research programs
and unified treatments of some of the crucial problems in the theory of strong
interaction.

The key topics of the REF 2015 Workshop are:
TMD parton densities
theoretical developments
determination of TMD pdfs
TMD fragmentation functions & final states
Fragmentation functions
Jet resummation/Jet shapes
TMDs and multiparton interactions
TMD phenomenology with focus on LHC
perturbative resummation
matching of non-pert/pert regions
resummation in colored final states (ttbar etc)
TMD - tools (TMDlib, MC generators etc )
TMDlib (https://tmdlib.hepforge.org)
TMDplotter (http://tmdplotter.desy.de)
resummation tools
Tools for x-section calculations
Monte Carlo event generators
general discussion



In case of questions, please do not hesitate to contact us

Looking forward to welcoming you to REF 2015 at DESY

Best

Ami Rostomyan, Igor Cherednikov, Markus Diehl, Francesco Hautmann, Hannes Jung,
Piet Mulders, Zoltan Nagy, Frank Tackmann
