U.S. FCC Hackathon

11 Aug 2025, 09:00 → 15 Aug 2025, 14:00 US/Eastern

Chris Rasmussen (Brookhaven National Laboratory (US)), Clara Lavinia Del Pio (Brookhaven National Lab), Jennifer Roloff (Brown University (US)), Julia Lynne Gonski (SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory (US)), Liza Brost (Brookhaven National Laboratory (US)), Loukas Gouskos (Brown University (US)), Robert Szafron (Brookhaven National Laboratory), Sally Dawson (BNL)

We're putting the "work" back in "workshop" this summer! Join us at Brookhaven National Laboratory August 11-15th for a Future Circular Collider workshop. Work-workshop. Hackathon. We will work together on high-priority, near-term tasks to advance the work ongoing in the international FCC community. We have some work packages in mind already, but feel free to propose your own! 

This is a great opportunity to get (more) involved in the exciting work towards the US HFCC AIM Detector Design Challenge and to make connections within the US FCC (experiment and theory) community.
