seminar tomorrow 11 am : Anisotropy Studies with the Pierre Auger Observatory
by Aart Heijboer 29 Feb '12

29 Feb '12

Hi all, Tomorrow at 11 am in h320 there will be a seminar by Stephan Schulte, who is interviewing for a post-doc position in our group. Title and abstract are below. I'd appreciate it if you come and ask questions! best regards, Aart. Anisotropy Studies with the Pierre Auger Observatory Stephan Schulte - RWTH Aachen University The Pierre Auger Observatory (PAO) in Malargüe (Argentina) reconstructs the arrival directions and energies of cosmic rays with energies exceeding 10^{18} eV. Under the assumption that the primary particles at the highest energies are only minimally deflected by the intergalactic magnetic field, it can be tested whether their arrival directions overlap with astronomical objects. In this context the PAO has observed a correlation of ultra high energy cosmic rays (UHECR) with nearby active galactic nuclei (AGN). In this talk a complementary approach is chosen. To this end, Autocorrelation methods are studied. They have the advantage of being independent of source and propagation models predicting the distribution of the arrival directions of UHECRs. However, to discover the assets and drawbacks of each method a Monte Carlo study is performed using simulated data sets based on a few of these modes. In the end, we compare the result when applied to data to the one of the catalogue-dependent correlation analysis by using the same event set.

Grid
by aart heijboer 28 Nov '11

28 Nov '11

Dear all, Does someone want to try to use the grid for Antares/KM3NeT work? We have a Virtual Organisation (of which I am the 'Manager'*) which is intended for this. I got the email below about our inactivity. If someone is interested at giving this a go, then we should make an effort (I can try to help, but don't know much more than what is available on the web). I think there is potentially a lot of computing power that we could use in this way, so it's worth the effort. On the other hand: I'm not going to do it myself just to keep the people at egi happy. So please: If you're interested to try to use the grid: let me know (and I'll tell them that we expect a surge of activity soon). Cheers, aart *I have to say: I never did much on this either: It's just that my email address is associated with this VO. -------- Original Message -------- Subject: [EGI BROADCAST] VO inactivity Date: Mon, 28 Nov 2011 15:39:44 +0100 From: EGI BROADCAST <cic-information(a)in2p3.fr> To: VO managers/astrop <aart.heijboer(a)nikhef.nl> --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- EGI BROADCAST TOOL : https://operations-portal.in2p3.fr/broadcast --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Publication from : Gergely Sipos<gergely.sipos(a)egi.eu> Targets : VO managers/astrop<aart.heijboer(a)nikhef.nl> ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dear VO Manager, With the help of CESGA team we have identified the VOs that have not run any job since 2010. Your VO is one of them. Could you give an explanation of this inactivity as soon as possible, but not later than the 12th of December? If you do not expect your VO to become active in the foreseen future, then it should be suspended so it will not appear in EGI statistics. If you have any problem or question please contact us at ucst(a)egi.eu. Thank you for your cooperation.

/data/antares is full
by Claudio Kopper 16 Nov '11

16 Nov '11

Hi everyone, I hope things are going well for everyone back in Amsterdam! I have a few KM3NeT jobs running at Nikhef and noticed that since a few days the /data/antares network drive is at its maximum capacity. Even after deleting some of my files to make room for new ones, the drive keeps filling up. Could everyone please check if all files on that drive are really necessary (and if not remove them or move them to some other drive)? And, if you currently have batch jobs running on stoomboot, make sure they write their output to a different drive. (Or make sure that there is enough space on /data/antares when you run them). Cheers, Claudio
