Some of the topics are quite general, and need more specificity before a statement can be made about their suitability for the workshop. In some cases, perhaps it is the determination of how to make the topic specific that could be the task for the workshop, or at least the first part of the task.
This topic should include not only the two-photon modes popular because of the CDF event, but also one-photon and no-photon modes. This is one of the topics for which significant theorist input would be of great value.
For MLES (also known as mSUGRA), we could analyze a subset of the "LHC points". These are the points selected for analysis at Snowmass ’9X. A reasonable start would be to look at what selection criteria have been identified as useful at the LHC, and check to see what might be useful at the Tevatron as well.
This is supersymmetry relying only upon the "standard" GUT relations which unify M1, M2 and M3. This is a convenient model for studies that concern only the production of charginos and neutralinos, for which the number of parameters in the model is modest: (m, tanb, M2) are a common choice
This topic would require input from theorists. The main difficulty seems to be deciding upon which of the many R-parity violating couplings should be considered as non-negligible.
This topic would require input from theorists. Technicolor is the primary competitor (with supersymmetry) for an explanation of the trouble inherent in a theory with fundamental scalars. Few workable models are available. Perhaps one of the invited theorists could suggest what models are most viable. We should avoid becoming stuck on any one theorist’s personal model.
