LPC Mini-Workshop on Early CMS Physics

Fermilab, June 8-9, 2007


Goals

With the CMS Physics Groups spearheading preparation for the analysis of early LHC data in a variety of high-priority channels, many US CMS groups are organizing and educating themselves, and trying to find the most effective ways to contribute to this international effort.

At the Fermilab LPC there is local expertise in a variety of object IDs, simulation, trigger, and physics areas that can facilitate and support US contributions to this CMS-wide Physics Commissioning effort. During the recent visit of CMS Physics Conveners to the LPC in early April, we compiled a list of areas of interest for Fermilab and a number of university groups. We would like to follow up on that visit with a workshop at Fermilab in which participants can begin to organize collaborative involvement in CMS physics and learn how the LPC can best support their physics efforts.


Organization

The workshop will take place at Fermilab, Friday and Saturday June 8-9, 2007, following the FNAL Users' Meeting. The first day will be devoted to a presentation of CMS plans and needs, and a discussion of areas of interest to USCMS, with reports of work-in-progress. The second day will include tutorials to help participants get started on physics analyses. We plan to finish by mid-afternoon on Saturday.

Register for the workshop. There is no registration fee.
