XVI Seminar on Software for Nuclear, Subnuclear and Applied Physics

→ Europe/Rome
Hotel Porto Conte

Hotel Porto Conte

Via Porto Conte, 79, 07041 Maristella SS, Italy
Description
This event is organized by INFN, University of Sassari and by the Centro Siciliano di Fisica Nucleare e Struttura della Materia. The Seminar offers lectures to Ph.D. students, medical physicists and young researchers working at Universities or Research Institutes.
 
The Seminar is organized in didactic units on software developed and used in fundamental and applied physics.

The lectures also include a full official basic course on the Geant4 Monte Carlo simulation toolkit. Lectures will cover all aspects of the toolkit from basic installation through advanced topics and will be interspersed with examples that build a progressively more complex application, extensible to real space and medical use.
On the last day of the School, students will have the opportunity to test their learning achievements through a written exam. The successful outcome of the test will be reported on a written certificate for those interested, to be requested on arrival, at the registration desk. A simple attendance certificate will also be available on request.

This year the school will host a cycle of seminars on machine learning fundamentals and application in physics and a course on Python programming language.
 
Registration is opened, a maximum number of 45 participants will be admitted.
The deadline for the participation is April 30th and the fee is 250 € before April 10th 2019 (early registration) and 350 € after April 10th 2019 (late registration).

Participants are recommended to bring their own laptop. A virtual machine with Linux-CentOS and a ready-to-use Geant4 installation will be provided in the next weeks, together with the installation instructions. The virtual machine can be run by using VirtualBox, a free software available for MacOS, Windows and some flavours of Linux: it can be downloaded from https://www.virtualbox.org.
 Students having problems with VirtualBox and/or with the virtual machine will be able to connect, via ssh, to a pre-configured local machine.

 
Staying at Hotel Porto Conte is mandatory for all the participants.
