Kati Lassila-Perini (Helsinki Institute of Physics (FI))21/10/2024, 13:30Track 8 - Collaboration, Reinterpretation, Outreach and EducationTalk
The CMS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) regularly releases open data and simulations, enabling a wide range of physics analyses and studies by the global scientific community. The recent introduction of the NanoAOD data format has provided a more streamlined and efficient approach to data processing, allowing for faster analysis turnaround. However, the larger MiniAOD format...

High Energy (Nuclear) Physics and Open Source are a perfect match with a long history. CERN has created an Open Source Program Office (CERN OSPO [1]) to help open-source hardware and software in the CERN community - for CERN staff and the experiments’ users. In the wider context, open source and CERN’s OSPO have key roles in CERN’s Open Science Policy [2]. With the OSPO, open-source projects...

In recent years, there has been significant political and administrative interest in “Open Science”, which on one hand has lead to additional obligations but also to significant financial backing. For institutes and scientific collaborations, the funding opportunities may have brought some focus on these topics, but there is also a the significant hope, though engagement in open science...

Since 1983 the Italian groups collaborating with Fermilab (US) have been running a 2-month summer training program for Master students. While in the first year the program involved only 4 physics students, in the following years it was extended to engineering students. Many students have extended their collaboration with Fermilab with their Master Thesis and PhD.

Virtual Visits have been an integral component of the ATLAS Education and Outreach programme since their inception in 2010. Over the years, collaboration members have hosted visits for tens of thousands of visitors located all over the globe. In 2024, alone there have already been 59 visits through the month of May. Visitors in classrooms, festivals, events or even at home have a unique...

If a physicist needs to ask for help on some software, where should they go? For a specific software package, there may be a preferred website, such as the ROOT Forum or a GitHub/GitLab Issues page, but how would they find this out? What about problems that cross package boundaries? What if they haven't found a tool that would solve their problem yet?
HEP-Help (hep-help.org) is intended as...

Large Language Models (LLMs) have emerged as a transformative tool in society and are steadily working their way into scientific workflows. Despite their known tendency to hallucinate, rendering them perhaps unsuitable for direct scientific pipelines, LLMs excel in text-related tasks, offering a unique solution to manage the overwhelming volume of information presented at large conferences...

Virtual Reality (VR) applications play an important role in HEP Outreach & Education. They make it possible to organize virtual tours of the experimental infrastructure by virtually interacting with detector facilities, describing their purpose and functionalities. However, nowadays VR applications require expensive hardware, like the Oculus headset or MS Hololense, and powerful computers. As...

Data Preservation (DP) is a mandatory specification for any present and future experimental facility and it is a cost-effective way of doing fundamental research by exploiting unique data sets in the light of the ever increasing theoretical understanding. When properly taken into account, DP leads to a significant increase in the scientific output (10% typically) for a minimal investment...

With the onset of ever more data collected by the experiments at the LHC and the increasing complexity of the analysis workflows themselves, there is a need to ensure the scalability of a physics data analysis. Logical parts of an analysis should be well separated - the analysis should be modularized. Where possible, these different parts should be maintained and reused for other analyses or...
