HiggsTools Handbook completed!

Submitted by ewng on Thu, 30/11/2017 - 22:01

The HiggsTools Handbook: Concepts and observables for deciphering the Nature of the Higgs Sector was finally completed and submitted to the arXiv this week. This Report summarizes some of the activities of the HiggsTools Initial Training Network working group in the period 2015-2017. The main goal of this working group was to produce a document discussing various aspects of state-of-the-art Higgs physics at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in a pedagogic manner. Fifteen of the ESRs helped writing the Report.
