The National Science Foundation Division of Physics awarded $440,666 under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.049) to Princeton University for the project "COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: DISCIPLINARY IMPROVEMENTS: FAIROS-HEP, A RESEARCH COORDINATION NETWORK FOR PARTICLE PHYSICS." The award period is from October 1, 2022 to September 30, 2025.
The project aims to foster the adoption of practices and cyberinfrastructure to enable reuse and reinterpretation of high energy physics datasets through the development of "living publications." Key deliverables include published likelihood functions and statistical models; analysis workflows compatible with the Reana reproducible research data analysis framework; and a recast interface allowing for kinematic reinterpretation. Preserving analyses will streamline the process for experiments to fork and modify existing analyses rather than starting from scratch. This coordination network builds on existing collaboration among stakeholders in the high energy physics community to facilitate distributed, asynchronous reuse of research products through integrated publications, data, software, analysis, and workflow preservation infrastructure.
