Welcome to the EIC Workshop and Tutorial on detector and physics simulation!
The goals of this event include:
- Workshop to discuss interests and plans for projects on simulation for EIC in India
- Introduction to EIC/ePIC physics and detector
- Tutorial on ePIC software
- Dedicated training and time to work on topics in detector simulation, tracking, PID, analysis, etc
This event is intended to be helpful for early career members of the EIC community and those interested in getting involved to learn about the steps to become productive and to participate in open projects. It is also intended to help faculty and scientists to learn about ongoing activities and contribute to several areas in simulation.
This event is sponsored by HSF-India. People are the key to successful software. The HSF-India project aims to promote the development of international research software collaborations. This is the sixth in a series of workshops for software and data analysis skills essential for doing research software in physics.
This event is organized primarily for graduate students. Registration will be open soon. We expect to accommodate about 30 students. Feel free to contact us in case of questions.
There is a nominal fee to participate, which will be collected after registrations have been accepted. This fee covers local expenses during the workshop. A limited number of scholarships are available. Contact the organizers for more information in case support is necesary for you to attend.
A set of pre-workshop lectures covering some of the prerequisite materials for this workshop are planned, more details are forthcoming. These will be mandatory for students not already familiar with the material to ensure that everyone is prepared for the workshop (additional information to be provided after registration). They held over Zoom and expected to be in the IST evening to facilitiate overlap with US-based discussion leads (5-10 hours in total).
In the case that we can not accept all applications, preference will be given to students from the surrounding region who are engaged in EIC research.
This event is supported by the IIT Bombay and the U.S. National Science Foundation grant OISE-2201990.
