CHEP 2023 - 26th International Conference on Computing in High Energy and Nuclear Physics
Preface
The 26th International Conference on Computing in High Energy and Nuclear Physics (CHEP), organized by Jefferson Lab, took place in Norfolk, Virginia from 5–11 May 2023. The conference attracted 581 registered participants from 28 different countries. There were scientific presentations made over the 5 days of the conference. These were divided between 20 long talks and 2 keynotes, which were presented in plenary sessions; 450+ short talks, which were presented in parallel sessions; and 140+ posters split over two dedicated sessions.
The CHEP conferences address the computing, networking and software issues for the world’s leading data-intensive science experiments that currently analyze hundreds of petabytes of data using worldwide computing resources. The Conference provides a unique opportunity for computing experts across Particle and Nuclear Physics to come together and learn from each other.
The inaugural CHEP conference took place in 1985 and has continued with a roughly 18 month cadence since that time.
