LoopFest IV

18 Aug 2005, 08:00 → 19 Aug 2005, 18:00 Europe/Zurich

Snowmass, Colorado

Wackeroth, Doreen

The 4th meeting of the LoopFest workshop will take place during the 2005 International Linear Collider Physics and Detector Workshop at Snowmass, Colorado. The LoopFest aims to provide a forum to coordinate activities focussed on the theoretical challenges resulting from the ultra-high experimental precision of a future ILC.
