    VENUE

    Institute of Physics (IOP), Bhubaneswar, India

The Large Hadron Collider has collected significant amount of data during its two years of operation. Apart from discovering the Higgs boson, it has severly constrained the models that go beyond the standard model. To compare the data with the models, there has been requirement for precise theoretical predictions. For most of the proceeses, NLO QCD and Electroweak corrections have already been computed. Now there is emphasis on the NNLO calculations. This frontier area will be the main topic of discussion in this meeting.

The field of Radiative Corrections is not a very active area of research in India. One of the goals of the meeting is to bring together those who are interested in this area to learn from one another, encourage collaboration and strengthen the field in India. Another goal of the meeting is to get aquainted with the leading trends in the field and train man-power by inviting and interacting with the experts.
