FOOD FOR THOUGHT • The aim of this workshop: – To identify and to plan for establishing the common foundations of the (Top quark) physics analysis activities at the IFIC towards the first physics in ATLAS. • Which ingredients of your analysis need to be settled down before the first data ? • Physics reach of your analysis at the end of 2010 (Lint=200 -300 pb-1, √s=10 Te. V)
