Purpose

• The purpose of the Summer 2017 Analysis workshop is to provide a setting in which users will have an opportunity to learn the details of the Hall A & C Analyzers
• These talks, tutorials, and hands-on sessions will be catered towards graduate students to help familiarize them with doing physics analyses with Jefferson Lab experimental data
• The sessions will be interleaved with Hall A, therefore they will be as generalized as possible
• All sessions will be recorded on BlueJeans and posted to the wiki page of future reference
• Each session will contain exercises that will also serve as homework
