DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/nhetc/36/">C
 onformal Colliders Meet the LHC</a>\nby Ian Moult (Yale University) as par
 t of NHETC Seminar\n\n\nAbstract\nJets of hadrons produced at high-energy 
 colliders provide experimental access to the dynamics of asymptotically fr
 ee quarks and gluons and their confinement into hadrons. Motivated by rece
 nt developments in conformal field theory\, we propose a reformulation of 
 jet substructure as the study of correlation functions of a specific class
  of light-ray operators and their associated operator product expansion (O
 PE). We show that multi-point correlation functions of these operators can
  be measured in real LHC data\, allowing us to experimentally verify prope
 rties of the light-ray OPE. We then discuss how this reformulation provide
 s new ways of experimentally studying the Standard Model at colliders\, as
  well as new theoretical techniques for performing calculations in QCD.\n
