Description
Imagine constructing a cosmic ray detector: a few layers of scintillator, some SiPMs, and an excited student wiring it all together. Easy! Your design is segmented to allow for tracking, but what is the best way to reconstruct that track? How do you properly account for all positions within a scintillator volume being equally likely? Come join me for a light-hearted talk about how to draw straight lines and how this applies to searches for new physics in proposed long-lived particle experiments.
