9th UK LArTPC Software and Analysis Workshop

28 Oct 2024, 09:00 → 31 Oct 2024, 12:30 Europe/London

James Clerk Maxwell Building

Andrzej Szelc (University of Edinburgh), Dominic Brailsford (Lancaster University)

Welcome to the 9th UK LArTPC Software and Analysis workshop! This workshop is rather informal, and it is intended for LArTPC Software/Analysis beginners (mostly PhD students and post-docs, but others are welcome too). The aim is for new collaborators on LArTPC experiments to become familiar with the software and analysis tools commonly available to experiments such as MicroBooNE, SBND, DUNE, protoDUNE and ICARUS...

This year, the school would be held in-person at the University of Edinburgh.  We will aim to run a remote connection, but the same level of participation cannot be guaranteed.

If you would like to attend this workshop, please make sure to register as soon as possible, and by no later than Friday 18th October, 2024. We look forward to seeing you in Edinburgh!
