November 17 – 20, 2015, Bogotá, Colombia

The High Energy Physics Group of Universidad de los Andes is organizing the 4th version of the Uniandes Particle Physics School. The aim of the school has been to focus on the theoretical and experimental aspects of a topic that is of current interest in the field of particle physics. This year we will concentrate on The Physics Beyond the Standard Model, that is expected and could be explored during the second run of the LHC accelerator at CERN. After the discovery of the Higgs boson, and with p-p collisions providing a Center-of-Mass? energy of 13 TeV, a new kinematical region will be open for the continuing search for new physics. The new possibilities for the observation of the existence of supersymmetric matter, new space dimensions, or any other kind of exotic physics will be explored. The prospects for finding an answer to the dark matter problem will also be assess.

Topics:

Theoretical and experimental lectures on:

• SUSY
• Extra Dimensions
• Dark Matter
• Exotica
• LHC Experiments
• HEP Software tools

- Standard Model and beyond
- CP violation
- Neutrino physics
- Hadron physics
- Experimental Heavy flavors
- Dark Matter

Overleaf (writeLaTeX before) is an excellent online LaTeX editor. Even better that many specific desktop software. It works online in source or rich-text modes. Its popularity (#overleaf) is increasing, may be because some of the following features:

• Integrated git server: To clone just change the www in the project URL by git.
• Inline (in rich-text mode via MathJax) and parallel panel preview. Includes also inline preview for figures (no yet for tables)
• Tab completion for commands, environments, refs, and cites.
• Special comments with discussions for collaborative work in the rich-text mode, which are just normal LaTeX comments in source mode.
• Integration with other online services like Zotero, Drobox, figshare, etc. Some requires Pro-accounts.

In this blog entry explain how to synchronize with another git repository, specifically for GitHub, but also work the same with any other repository server.

The 2nd webinar is now available on youtube

From: CERN: 2014 Google Summer of Code students present their projects

Omar Zapata, a Computer Science student from Medellin, Colombia, worked on developing an interface between ROOT and R, a software framework for statistical computing. With his work it is now possible to use the very large set of statistical tools present in R inside ROOT and with data stored in ROOT objects. These tools which include some of the latest algorithms developed by the statistics and computing research community. Omar wrote classes which perform the translation from the ROOT objects to R objects in order to call R functions and to return the result to ROOT in order to visualize or store it. His work is available as a public, dedicated branch of ROOT in github; in the near future it will be migrated in the ROOT official report.

UPDATE: ROOT-R is now in the ofcial master of ROOT From Omar Zapata: include ROOT-R interface allowing to use R functions inside ROOT.
