LHCb Data Challenge

Fri 11 Apr 2003

Over the last 2 months, LHCb have undertaken a data challange to produce 40 million simulated events for the trigger and detector re-optimisation technical design reports. The 40 million events were produced ahead of schedule. Seven of the eight LHCb UK institues contributed to this Monte Carlo production, including the Tier 1 centre at RAL and the large regional computing resources in London and ScotGrid. Overall the UK contributed over 1/3 of all events produced and greater than 40% of all events produced outside of CERN. The breakdown of all LHCb contributing institutes can be found on http://lhcb-comp.web.cern.ch/lhcb-comp/ComputingModel/production/prod-status.htm
