Live Notes

EDM4HEP Live Notes

Present: Graeme, Geri, Benedikt, Valentin, Weidong, Xingtao

Introduction and General Points

Good progress

Discussion on Track PR

• TPChit maybe not needed
• Open discussion on single hit class, TBD
• Should we add timing into the base class?
  • Probably useful, given the rise of timing detectors

Missing pieces: Nothing else key identified from the list

What about navigation (MC⇔Data)?

• Do we need to make this easier for users?
• Distinguish between core EDM objects and helper code to give good ergonomics
• Easier to have this discussion once EDM v0.1 is defined

Slot for an EDM talk at the Hong Kong meeting. There should be Vidyo to connect, but will be EU nighttime

Next meeting, we shall arrange for 21 January (11h), to be confirmed on the mailing list

Best wishes to everyone for the holidays!
