Seminar topic: “Simulation and coordinate reconstruction in microstrip tracking detectors of the BM@N Experiment”
Speaker: Dmitry Baranov
Abstract:
The talk focuses on the development of software for coordinate detectors of the tracking system in the BM@N Experiment. Algorithms for simulating signal responses in silicon and gas detectors are considered, as well as methods for local coordinate reconstruction of charged particle hits from microstrip planes. The developed software enables easy adaptation of the algorithms to new detector geometries, ensuring high flexibility in changing the configuration of the detector facility. The presented methods and algorithms are integrated into the BMNROOT software and are actively used for simulation, reconstruction, and analysis of experimental data in the BM@N Experiment.

Seminar topic: “Development of the CREST Conditions DB for the ATLAS Experiment”
Speaker: Mikhail Mineev
Abstract:
For the correct physical data processing, it is necessary to use the conditions data. The CREST Project is a new realisation of the Conditions DB with the Rest API and JSON support for the ATLAS Experiment. This project allows to simplify the conditions data structure and to optimise the data access. This talk is focused on the CREST architecture, its main components, and the CREST data usage in Athena. In the future, CREST will use a new high-level interface for the database access realised in the Conditions High-level Application Interface (chai) package. The packages written by the speaker (CrestApi, crest_cmd, etc.) are considered in detail.
