Strongly interacting dynamics beyond the Standard Model and the Higgs boson

Synopsis

This meeting aims at bringing together experts from three different areas of Particle Physics with a common interest in strongly interacting dynamics beyond the standard model as a mechanism of electroweak symmetry breaking. Traditionally, there is little cross-talk among those sectors: phenomenologists focus on experimental data and their implications; model builders start from a theoretical framework and using analytical techniques (derived either from field theory or string theory arguments) work out predictions that can be tested at experiments; finally, lattice gauge theorists use numerical techniques to determine quantitative answers for problems for which conventional analytical methods fail. The main objective of this workshop is to promote a significant advance in the field of BSM strong dynamics by facilitating the synergy among those apparently different but strictly interconnected sub-fields. Top of the list of the anticipated results is an increase of scientific collaborations among experts of the three thematic areas.
