[Theory-seminars] MC4EIC: Workshop on Monte Carlo Event Simulation for the EIC

[Astrid Hiller Blin]

Dear All,

Please find the announcement for the MC4EIC virtual workshop appended
below. It is to be held on November 18-19 and envisions to set clear goals
for joint experimental-theoretical work on MC event generators for the EIC.

Best regards,
Astrid



*MC4EIC: Monte Carlo Event Simulation for the EIC, November 18-19, 2021*

Dear all:

We wish to remind you about MC4EIC, a workshop on Monte Carlo event
simulation for the Electron-Ion Collider (EIC). The workshop is organized
by the CTEQ collaboration and the EIC User Group and will be hosted by CFNS
as a virtual meeting on November 18-19, 2021.

Success of the EIC science program critically depends on precise
theoretical predictions for electron-ion collisions. Parton showering
programs serve as a backbone for such calculations in most particle physics
experiments, and the EIC is no exception. Developing precision simulations
will therefore be mandatory. It will require advancements in QCD theory and
computational methods, as well as a close dialog between experimentalists
and theorists.

To facilitate this dialog, we aim to bring together experts in various
domains of QCD theory and experiment to discuss recent advances in
the development of event generators, as well as needs and requirements for
future progress. You can find the workshop's agenda at:
https://indico.bnl.gov/event/13298/timetable/

This MC4EIC kick-off workshop will establish a foundation for an in-depth
look at the MC event generators that are currently used or developed
for the EIC. Questions that will be defined at the kick-off workshop will
be addressed at the next workshop, tentatively to be held in Spring 2022.

To receive the Zoom connection information and be included in other
communications from the workshop's organizers, please register at:
https://indico.bnl.gov/event/13298/registrations . Registration for the
MC4EIC workshop is free.

We look forward to seeing you at the virtual workshop.

Yours sincerely,

Elke-Caroline Aschenauer (BNL)
