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 C Analyzer
  • 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
  • The session 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
