    Modern high energy physics experiments require going to higher energies to probe shorter distances, producing large numbers of particles in interactions, while also looking for rare processes that necessitate very high luminosities and multiple interactions per event. To handle these complex requirements, experiments use very large composite detector systems with tracking devices and calorimeters and finely segmented readout with millions of channels. Understanding how the detector performs and how reconstruction software analyzes data from so many channels is crucial for relying on event analysis.

    Present Day HEP Experiments

    ‰ A modern high energy physics experiment demands


    – Go to higher and higher energies to probe at shorter distances
    ™Large number of particles are produced in a given interaction
    – Look for rarer processes → work at very high luminosities
    ™Multiple interactions in a single event
    ‰ To cope such complex requirement
    – Use a very large and composite detector system
    ™Tracking devices, calorimeters, …
    – To separate interactions and also particles coming out from a
    given interaction make finer readout
    ™Large number of readout channels
    ‰ How one can rely on event analysis with signals coming from
    millions of channels
    – Dedicate time to understand how the detector performs or what
    the reconstruction/analysis software does to data
