Scripts for SiW ECAL test beam analysis

Single slab analysis

RAW2ROOT.cc is the macro that reads the raw files and makes covnersion to root files, for single slabs. Example of how to run it is in ConvertDirectory.cc: root -l -q /home/irles/cernbox/TB2017/SiWECAL-TB-analysis-dev/ConvertDirectory.cc("/Folder_path/"/"",""dif_1_1_1.raw"",bcid_threshold) The bcid threshold is used to refine retriggers (retriggers are consecutive triggers with bcid[sca+1}-bcid[sca] < bcid_trheshold

Analysis tools are provided in

cd singleslab/

--> pedestal studies --> mip studies. (see README in the folder)

Built Events

Batch conversion and event building

One can use the batch_convert.py script to automatically convert (raw2root), merge (single slab files) and build events. The usage is:

./batch_convert.py path/to/dir/with/runs [options]

The options can be seen by executing without arguments.

Single steps

Merge single dif/slab files

Use mergeRootFiles.C to merge the root files from different slabs:

python version

$ ./mergeRootFiles.py /path/to/root/files/prefix_ (before dif_1)..)

original C macro version

root[] .L mergeRootFiles.C
root[] m = new mergeRootFiles()
root[] m->Merge("path/to/dir/with/files/run_prefix_")

Build events (python builder)

Use build_events.py to build BCID-based events with hits from the merged file. Run as: $ ./build_events.py merged_filename.root One can modify the maxEntries to process.

The pedestal file directory has to be updated in the help_tools.py file. The tungsten/W configuration is hard-coded in the build_events.py.

Analyze build events

For now simple analysis is possible directly from the ROOT prompt with ecal->Draw(). A python analyzer will be added soon.
