The "COMPASS-AMBER software and Monte-Carlo Summer School- 2024" will take place at CERN (in 892/1-D20) between August 6 and 9.

The school program offers a variety of tutorials and contributions dedicated to COMPASS software, MC tools, and analysis methods.

Topics to be covered:

• PHAST and analysis tools
  

• HTcondor and lxbatch submissions 

• RIVET toolkit

• TGeant Monte-Carlo chain

• Implementing a detector in TGeant

• Monte-Carlo event generators

• RICH and PID

• Using Neural Networks with the RICH 
  

• CORAL reconstruction software
  

In addition to the tutorials, there will be discussions of practical examples and hands-on sessions addressing useful exercises.
The school would be delighted to welcome all interested colleagues, including bachelor's, master's, and PhD students, as well as postdoctoral researchers.

Organizers: Bakur Parsamyan (chair), Jan Matousek, Mikhail Mikhasenko, Stefan Wallner, Thomas Poschl

The school is supported by the COMPASS collaboration and COMPASS management.
