DUNE Physics Week

14 Nov 2017, 08:00 → 17 Nov 2017, 18:00 US/Central

Fermilab

This 4-day meeting bridges the long gap between DUNE collaboration meetings. The format emphasizes working time for the Physics Working Groups and related efforts (e.g., Calibration Task Force, ProtoDUNE DRA).

The first day (Tuesday, November 14) will include a mix of software and physics tutorials to bring new people up to speed.  Wednesday through Friday will be focused on completing critical tasks in these areas:

• Long baseline oscillations
• High-E non-accelerator (NDK, etc.)
• Low-E non-accelerator (SNB, etc.)
• Beyond the Standard Model
• Sim/Reco/Analysis tools (FD and ProtoDUNE)
• Calibration

Sim/Reco and Calibration will often work jointly with other WGs. The precise breakdown of joint sessions is still TBD based on needs and final room availability.

Anyone interested in getting involved in the above areas is highly encouraged to participate.

COMPUTING ACCESS: Attendees should have Fermilab/DUNE computing access. The August computing tutorials contain several useful computing start-up guides.  See here:
