Discussions and collaborative documentation

Electronic discussions and collaborative documentation activities in TOTEM can be conducted through the web-based HyperNews (HN) and TWiki systems.

TOTEM Hypernews discussion forums and TOTEM TWiki pages have been grouped in the same 5 categories:

• 1. Organization,
• 2. Detector,
• 3. Software and computing,
• 4. Physics,
• 5. Documentation

this grouping is inspired by the web of the BaBar experiment at SLAC, and as time progresses, some coherence should be maintained also at lower levels of the infospace, by cross-revising the grouping at regular intervals. The look-and-feel of both systems has been customized for TOTEM in a similar way.

HyperNews and TWiki are centrally managed at CERN by two different support centers, and require separate registration; please follow the links:

• HyperNews

• TWiki
