Exploring New Phenomena
October 16, 2006

Goals

In light of the recent results from the Tevatron with the first 1 fb-1 of data, we want to explore ways to further improve the chances of observing new phenomena with the full Run 2 Tevatron dataset. We will examine the impact of Tevatron's current results and options to improve the analyses and maximize the discovery potential of CDF and DZero. We want to discuss recent theoretical developments and their impacts on the Tevatron's search strategies for the multi-inverse femtobarn datasets.

This is an open workshop - anyone can attend, there is no registration fee.
Ad-hoc video conference will be set up, use number 85-TEVNP
