LHCb Starterkit 2019

21 Oct 2019, 09:00 → 25 Oct 2019, 17:00 Europe/Zurich

CERN

Martha Hilton (University of Manchester (GB))

The Starterkit is a five day event which will get you ready for analysing LHCb data. This is a hands-on workshop, so bring your laptop!

The first part of the Starterkit will be an introduction to the tools you'll use day to day during your PhD, including Bash, Git, and Python.

The second part will focus on LHCb specific software, tasks and questions. The source material is available on the first analysis steps site.

Attendees should make sure to follow the course prerequisites before attending the workshop.

Until the workshop, new members to LHCb are invited to follow the content at the analysis-essentials and first-analysis-steps sites.
