Physics analysis at the HL-LHC

15 May 2025, 14:00 → 16 May 2025, 18:50 Europe/Zurich

“End-user physics analysis”, starting from centrally provided files and ending with a publication, is done in many different ways. This workshop aims to address the following two questions:

 

• What are the computational needs of representative end-user physics analyses today, in terms of overall workflow, services used, number of events and total volume of data to process, and computational cost per event?
• Which scenarios should we consider to extrapolate these physics analyses’ needs toward the HL-LHC?

It follows a survey distributed to ATLAS and CMS which gathers input for discussing these questions. This IRIS-HEP "blueprint" workshop aims to produce a document summarizing a set of benchmark analyses, alongside an extrapolation of how we expect them to evolve towards the HL-LHC. The event is jointly organized with the CMS CAT group, the ATLAS AMG group, and the HSF DAWG group.

This is a hybrid event: join us at CERN or on Zoom. Please register if you are interested in attending!
