Building a Microelectronics Foundation for Tomorrow’s Detectors
Building a Microelectronics Foundation for Tomorrow’s Detectors The challenge: smarter chips in harsher places Particle physics detectors have always pushed electronics to their limits. The next generation of tracking systems and calorimeters will depend critically on dense, intelligent, low power and radiation-hard microelectronics: front-end ASICs that can survive for decades in harsh environments, having their

Distributed Analysis with ROOT RDataFrame
Distributed Analysis with ROOT RDataFrame The HL-LHC is foreseen to generate roughly thirty times more data than the LHC has produced so far. Given the available future budget estimations and expected technological evolution [1], software will play a crucial role to cover the performance gap and be able to process the foreseen data volumes. In

ROOT 10th workshop: Fun with Data
ROOT 10th workshop: Fun with Data ROOT is a modular software toolkit mainly developed in the SFT group and is made for processing, analysing and visualising scientific data. It also allows to read and write data: presently, LHC experiments alone produced about 1 Exabyte (one million Terabytes!) of data stored on disks and tapes in
