Dear Colleagues,

The first JETSCAPE Winter School and Workshop will take place at
Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, January 3-7, 2018. The Winter
School will be held January 3 through the morning of January 5 ,
followed by the Workshop from the afternoon of January 5  through January 7.

The website for the Winter School and Workshop, including registration
and information about travel and accommodations, can be found here:

The Winter School is aimed at PhD students and postdocs, in both theory
and experiment. The focus of the Winter School is on the implementation
of jet quenching and hydrodynamic calculations in the JETSCAPE framework
that is currently under development, and its application to experimental
data. The Winter School will consist of lectures on theoretical and
experimental aspects of jets and jet quenching, together with extensive
hands-on practical sessions working with the JETSCAPE code. Attendance
at the school is by application, and the number of attendees will be
limited. Financial support to attend the school is available for PhD
students and postdocs.

The goal of the following Workshop is to gather leading experts working
on Monte Carlo event generators, to discuss outstanding issues related
to the design, implementation, and validation of the physics processes
of jet production and jet quenching, including comparison
with experimental data. A portion of the workshop will be dedicated to
the implementation of various approaches within the JETSCAPE framework.

Please contact us (contact info on the website) if you have questions or
require additional information.
