**1. Getting started**
* [Install ROOT](Install-ROOT)
* [Install AUSALIB](https://gitlab.au.dk/ausa/ausalib/wikis/Getting-AUSAlib)
* [Install GSL](https://gitlab.au.dk/ausa/ausalib/wikis/GSL) (optional)
**2. Detector set-up**
* Specify your [detector set-up](https://gitlab.au.dk/ausa/ausalib/wikis/Setup) maybe using the graphical [SetupEditor](https://gitlab.au.dk/ausa/setupeditor/wikis/home)
* Create a [3D rendering](https://gitlab.au.dk/ausa/Drawer/wikis/home) of your detector set-up
**3. Calibration**
* Specify the [radioactive source](https://gitlab.au.dk/ausa/ausalib/wikis/JSON_Source) used for the calibration
* [Energy calibration](Energy-calibration)
* [Geometry calibration](https://gitlab.au.dk/ausa/ausalib/wikis/Geometry_fitter)
**4. Sorting**
* Specify a [matcher](https://gitlab.au.dk/ausa/ausalib/wikis/JSON-Matcher) for the sorting process
* [Sorting your data](https://gitlab.au.dk/ausa/Sorter/wikis/Usage)
* [Sorting your data with full controll](https://gitlab.au.dk/ausa/ausalib/snippets/5) (example)
**5. Analysis**
* Implement one or several [analyzers](https://gitlab.au.dk/ausa/ausalib/wikis/Analyzers)
* Useful analysis [tools](https://gitlab.au.dk/ausa/ausalib/wikis/Utilities)
*NB: Starting from 10/2016 we are splitting the analysis into two steps: Identification and Event building (see below).*
**5a. Identification**
* Use the [Identifier](https://gitlab.au.dk/ausa/Identifier/wikis/home) to identify particles and make energy-loss corrections.
**5b. Event building**
* Use the [EventBuilder](https://gitlab.au.dk/ausa/EventBuilder/wikis/home) to construct events and perform physics analysis.
**6. Simulation**
* Use [simX](https://gitlab.au.dk/ausa/simX/wikis/home) to run a Monte Carlo simulation of your experiment
* Use [RutherSim](https://gitlab.au.dk/ausa/RutherSim) to estimate the Rutherford scattering rate into your detectors
