[Hps] [EXTERNAL] 2016 Data Analysis Workshop -- Jan. 21-22

[Graham, Mathew Thomas]

Hi All,

I hope everyone had a good break; time to get back to work!

We will have a 2-day analysis workshop January 21-22 focusing on the 2016 analyses.  Topics will include:



  *   Finalizing (or finalizing the plan to get) event selection

     *   Discussion of cuts that we can make common between vert/BH

  *   Statistical treatment of selected sample and implementation

     *   Signal extraction, discovery thresholds, limit setting
     *   Integrating systematic errors into this

  *   A heavy dose of systematic errors

     *   What are they and how do we estimate them
     *   Deficiencies in MC and how to address them
     *   Corrections we can implement to MC to reduce these

  *   Documentation

     *   Support notes that would be useful?
     *   Best way to make recipes for repeating analysis/future analysis


I’ll put together a loose agenda in the coming days.  We’ll have some sessions for the full group to discuss common issues and also some break-out BH/Vertexing-only sessions.  We’ll have zoom meetings for all sessions.  Everyone is welcome to attend and contribute; please come to as much of the workshop as you can.  In particular it would be very useful to have RC and EC-observers join in to get an early jump on the review.

Thanks, Matt
