The AMY detector, a compact device from the 1980s, played a significant role at CERN's LEP and LHC facilities. These experiments examined collision processes involving electrons, protons, and anti-particles, revealing crucial insights into particle interactions and new physics. By measuring cross sections and branching ratios, researchers evaluate the probability of events like Higgs decays. Harnessing high-speed networking and computing power, the HEP Data Grid enables massive data sharing and complex analysis of up to 108 events per year, paving the way for future explorations in high-energy physics.

Why HEP Data Grid and e-Science? • The Grid is rapidly being recognized as one of the most promising application of information technology. • High Energy Physics (HEP), as one of the most immediate applications, needs, in its nature, - A new next-generation information technology in very high-speed networking, - massive data distribution and processing, - and intensive computing power and data storage. • To meet these needs, "HEP Data Grid“ and we do e-Science
