7. miniworkshop difrakce a ultraperiferních srážek

18 Sept 2024, 12:00 → 20 Sept 2024, 15:00 Europe/Prague

ČVUT Děčín

Workshop will address topics in phenomenology and data analysis techniques used in diffractive processes as well as ultra-periferal collisions. It will have colloquial character with emphasis on discussing various tools and approaches used in the field. Majority talks will be covered by students.

Wednesday, 18 September

16:30 → 18:20 Beyond ALICE

Convener: Matěj Vaculčiak

16:30 Welcome

Speaker: Matěj Vaculčiak

16:45 Group introduction

Speaker: Jesus Guillermo Contreras

17:00 Preparing a Marie Curie grant

In the life of every scientist there is a moment when ey realizes: "If I really want to continue to do science, I need to get my own financing". This talk is about my struggle in writing my very first major grant proposal. I will tell you how I arrived at this idea, how I decided on the topic, what the full paperwork looks like and what one should not forget. Disclaimer: At this very moment, I'm only a submitter of the grant proposal, not a receiver yet. Maybe, one year from now, this talk may turn into a manual on how not to do it.

11:10 NLO BK

The Balitsky-Kovchegov evolution equation tells us much about the gluonic structure of hadronic targets in accelerator experiments. As its leading order form has been around for decades with great successes in high-energy phenomenology, the next-to-leading order version (yielding a more accurate description of the scattering process) proves to be a tough nut to crack. In this talk, we will crack it.

11:50 Numerical integration

Solving problems in contemporary physics often comes hand in hand with the need for accurate numerical integration. With every additional dimension that needs to be integrated over, this problem becomes increasingly more difficult and at some point unsolvable. One possible way to tackle this issue comes with Monte Carlo Importance Sampling integration. I will introduce this method along with snippets of code to facilitate immediate use for the problems you might be facing today.
