• 10502145

• attendance: Ian, AndrewM, Viktor, Vag, Ian, OLI, Bo, Matteo, Sunil, Maria

• Plan for analysis/data

  • 2 thrusts, separate data reduction thrust from analysis thrust until CHEP at least
  • data reduction thrust
    • try to reduce dataset quickly by using the new tools
    • physics use case is not very important and is the only thing that prevents Vag from moving forward
    • Viktor does not want to use his old analysis (Higgs) because he wants to concentrate on computing
    • will settle on Z cross section for now, with Dominic (Olivito) help
  • analysis thrust
    • proposal: start from ntuples and implement full analysis
    • Andrew has analysis use case, Matteo's dark matter analysis can be implemented too
    • investigate user experience

  • do the two thrusts in parallel

• Abstract for CHEP

  • the plan described above will be presented
  • Matteo will prepare a draft later today or tomorrow
