Abstract
ATLAS Open Data is an initiative aimed at making the data, simulations, and documentary resources of the experiment accessible to a wide audience, in accordance with the CERN Open Data policy. The project has seen the release of numerous datasets of proton-proton collisions at center-of-mass energies of 8 TeV and 13 TeV collected at the LHC during Run-1 and Run-2, allowing for the investigation of typical phenomena in high-energy physics. To facilitate their dissemination, the data are shared in accessible and commonly used formats. Additionally, they are accompanied by software and web interfaces designed for easy use, without the need for installation or coding by the user. The objective is twofold. On the one hand, the goal is to promote these activities in outreach and educational contexts, such as Summer Schools, Masterclasses, university projects, as well as various initiatives within the ATLAS Collaboration itself. On the other hand, high-energy physics research becomes accessible to an interdisciplinary audience, involving experts from other fields to benefit from their expertise, such as machine learning and computer science. This work provides an overview of the ATLAS Open Data resources, with concrete examples of how they can be used to promote scientific education and research in the field of particle physics.
