ROOT Summer Student Course 2026

Content provider

ROOT is a software framework born at CERN, at the heart of the research on high-energy physics. Every day, thousands of physicists use ROOT applications to analyze their data or to perform simulations.

Our strategic goal is to provide a unified software package for the storage, processing, visualisation and analysis of scientific data that is reliable, performant, supported, and sustainable that is easy to use and obtain, and that minimises the computing resources needed to achieve scientific results. The success of experiments and all ROOT users at large is our priority.
