Summer 2017 Analysis Workshop

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
• The sessions will be interleaved with Hall A, therefore they will be as generalized as possible
  • This encourages both Hall A and Hall C folks to attend the entire workshop

Proposed Structure

• 2/3 hour sessions comprised of ~60 min of talks followed by ~60/120 min of hands on exercises
• 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
• A wiki will be made afterwords which contains the solutions to the exercises
