The working group meets typically twice per year (once at CERN and once outside). The WG is a forum for:

  • Exchange of technical information and discussion of results between LHC experiments on their forward physics programmes. 
  • Interaction between theorists and experimentalists from the LHC experiments about forward physics
  • Development of the future LHC forward physics programme 
  • Development of a strategy for special LHC runs for forward physics 
  • Discussion of new technologies applicable to forward detectors 
  • Development of ideas for new LHC experiments for forward physics 
  • Discussion of relations of LHC forward physics to other fields (e.g. cosmic ray physics) and facilities (e.g. EIC)

Dedicated subgroup meetings and more general meetings will take place every 5-6 weeks and are opened to everybody.
