BNL/ANL FDR Analysis Jamboree, March 2008

Introduction

This Analysis Jamboree is jointly organized by the BNL ATLAS Analysis Support Center and ANL ATLAS Anlysis Support Center. It focuses on analysis of the ATLAS FDR Full Dress Researsal) data. We expect the FDR-1 data to be ready for analysis sometime in Feb 2008. In this Jamboree, the on-going analysis will worked on, experience will be shared, and preparation for FDR-2 will also be discussed. There will be common meetings between the two sites through video conferencing, and local working sessions among the participants at each site. The video conference will be open for others who are not at either sites to join.

Dates and Agenda Outline

The dates for the Jamboree
Mar 17-Mar 20, 2008

The agenda for the Jamboree will be filled shortly.

The participants are welcome to stay longer at BNL/ANL if they find it beneficial, but please check the availability of personnel you intend to interact with. We hope that this environment would provide an added benefit for bringing collaborators of similar physics interests to work together, not just at the Analysis Week, but thereafter as well.

We will organize a dinner on Wednesday, March 19, 2008,

Location

The BNL meeting will take place in BNL Physics Department, Building 510A, Room 2-84 for general meetings, and additional space for breakout sessions in Room 1-105 and Room 1-113 in the same building, and a coffee lounge in Room 1-100. Physics Bldg map

Please refer to the BNL Map for directions to lab and the physics department.

The ANL meeting will take place in the HEP division (Building 362) in the ANL Atlas Analysis Support Center (ANL ASC) Room E-116. Directions can be found here.

Registration

We require a registration for the Jamboree because space is limited, and we would like to know in advance the topics to be discussed. There is no registration fee, please fill out a registration form at http://www.usatlas.bnl.gov/BNLJamboreeMar08/reserve.php. If you have any questions, feel free to contact Hong Ma (hma@bnl.gov) and Linda Feierabend (feierabe@bnl.gov) for BNL, and Tom LeCompte? (lecompte@anl.gov) and Rik Yoshida (ryoshida@hep.anl.gov) for ANL.

Attendees who already hold a valid BNL Guest Badge may come on site without notification to the main gate. Attendees who already have approved guest appointments, but do not have a Guest Badge will have to notify the BNL main gate of their arrival by checking in here. US citizens without a guest appointment are allowed on site, but we must know the dates of your visit so that the main gate can be notified.

All others must apply for the BNL guest appointment by completing the Brookhaven's Guest Registration Form well in advance of the meeting. You will be notified when the guest appointment is approved. When you arrive at BNL with the approved guest appointment for the first time, you must stop at the security office by the main entrance where you will be issued a temporary pass, then proceed to the RHIC/AGS Users' Office to complete the check-in procedure.

NON-US citizens without BNL guest appointment should complete the BNL Guest Registration form as soon as possible, since it takes additional time for the approval process, especially for people from "sensitive" countries.

Please also note that obtaining a BNL computer account at USATLAS Tier-1 requires an approved guest appointment (irrespective of citizenship).

BNL Visitor information is http://www.bnl.gov/bnlweb/userindex.html .

For Argonne participants, please indicate whether you are a US citizen or not. Non-US citizen should register as early as possible, since it will take time to process the gate pass.

Network connections, Wireless

All computers connected to BNL network need to be registered with the BNL ITD. When you first connect to the network, your web browser will be connected to a page to register your computer. Enter the appropriate information on the page (your Guest number is needed), re-start the network connection, you will then be connected.

The physics building has visitor wireless network. The name of the wireless access point is Corus2. A few wired connections (inside firewall) are available in rooms 2-84 and 1-105. You need to set http proxy in the web browser after registration, for both wireless and wired connections, see i http://www.bnl.gov/cybersecurity/www.asp for instructions.

If you have not logged onto your BNL account lately, you should be aware that using ssh private key is required. Follow this link https://www.racf.bnl.gov/docs/authentication/ssh/sshkeys.

We will ask for additional interactive nodes be made available during the Jamboree. They are included in the pool of the interactive machines, so using "rterm" is sufficient.
