MCnet Summer School 2026
The 19th MCnet school will be held CERN. The school provides a five-day course of training in the physics and techniques used in modern Monte Carlo event generators via a series of lectures, practical sessions, and discussions with event-generator authors. The school is aimed at advanced doctoral students and early-career postdocs. Please note that the school will take place in person only; a remote participation option will not be offered. Our core sessions comprise a series of introductory...
