MC4EIC: Monte Carlo Event Simulation for the EIC, November 18-19, 2021

Dear all: 

We wish to remind you about MC4EIC, a workshop on Monte Carlo event simulation for the Electron-Ion Collider (EIC). The workshop is organized by the CTEQ collaboration and the EIC User Group and will be hosted by CFNS as a virtual meeting on November 18-19, 2021. 

Success of the EIC science program critically depends on precise theoretical predictions for electron-ion collisions. Parton showering programs serve as a backbone for such calculations in most particle physics experiments, and the EIC is no exception. Developing precision simulations will therefore be mandatory. It will require advancements in QCD theory and computational methods, as well as a close dialog between experimentalists and theorists.

To facilitate this dialog, we aim to bring together experts in various domains of QCD theory and experiment to discuss recent advances in the development of event generators, as well as needs and requirements for future progress. You can find the workshop's agenda at: https://indico.bnl.gov/event/13298/timetable/ 
 
This MC4EIC kick-off workshop will establish a foundation for an in-depth look at the MC event generators that are currently used or developed for the EIC. Questions that will be defined at the kick-off workshop will be addressed at the next workshop, tentatively to be held in Spring 2022. 

To receive the Zoom connection information and be included in other communications from the workshop's organizers, please register at: https://indico.bnl.gov/event/13298/registrations . Registration for the MC4EIC workshop is free.

We look forward to seeing you at the virtual workshop.

Yours sincerely, 

Elke-Caroline Aschenauer (BNL)
