Recent talks
-
I lectured at the CTEQ
school on QCD analysis and phenomenology, on
The Physics and Techniques of Monte Carlo
event generators:
This is also the course I gave last year in Oxford and the year before
at the TeVatron University
(or University of D0 as it was called then).
-
I lectured at the British Summer School for Young Experimenters at Cosener's
House, on
Phenomenology:
There is also now a set of accompanying
notes.
-
In July 2003 I gave CERN's academic training
lectures on
Monte Carlo
event generators for LHC physics.
-
I recently (August 2000) had a job interview at the University of Manchester
and gave this talk. It must have
been OK, as I got the job and will be moving there next year.
-
I am currently (Jan/Feb 2000) giving a course on Introduction
to QCD in Oxford. I am using the blackboard and these notes are
mainly written for my benefit, so they are a bit rough-and-ready, but I
hope they are useful (and that all formulae are present and correct).
I am writing them as I go along, so you will need to check from time to
time whether they are up to date. I have also started giving solutions
to some of the problems.
-
I gave a talk at the Annual
UK Theory Winter Meeting on Recent Progress in
Perturbative QCD.
-
Together with Bryan
Webber, I made a proposal to the Particle Physics Experimental Selection
Panel of PPARC for funding to write
a replacement for HERWIG, imaginatively called HERWIG++.
At the last minute I also threw in this fun
graph of the size of HERWIG as a function of time.
-
I gave a talk to PPARC's Science
Committee on behalf of the UK phenomenology
community.
-
A review of precision electroweak measurements
at LEP, SLC and Tevatron at the IOP half-day meeting on high
Q^2 physics at HERA.
For some reason, page 7 is a bit dodgy, so if you have trouble printing
it, you can get the text and figure
separately.
John Holt also kindly supplied a couple of
the slides.
