sPHENIX discussion of software

["Huang, Jin" <jhuang AT bnl.gov>]

Also available on agenda: https://indico.bnl.gov/conferenceDisplay.py?confId=1906

 

GenFit interface - Haiwang Yu

 

Progress:

1.       Chris installed GenFit- working;

2.       Pull request for pre-view and generic testing

3.       Comments and tests. welcomed.

https://github.com/sPHENIX-Collaboration/coresoftware/pull/137

 

Conclusion: merge pull request to test in nightly builds.  

 

 

Test beam simulation - Chris Pinkenburg

 

Chris: newer HCal simulation is ready, supporting towers and digitization chain.

 

Action Item [Megan]: organize HCal simulation analysis studies.

 

 

Test beam simulation and analysis - Jin Huang

 

Recent wiki page documenting on-going test beam data production and EMCal analysis:

·       https://wiki.bnl.gov/sPHENIX/index.php/T-1044#Online_Production

·       https://wiki.bnl.gov/sPHENIX/index.php/T-1044/EMCal_good_run_note

Please add your code to GitHub and wiki notes too.

 

Abhisek and Chris gave many very useful suggestions, which go into the following action items:

 

Action Item [Jin & Abhisek]: Follow up on a discussion on calibration setup for two gains on HCal

Action Item [Jin & Chris]: Setup standardized production on Anatrain and output to data disks, which will periodically process all PRDF with latest calibration and code.
                                               People are welcomed to run the production macro directly themselves when looking a small set of the in-coming data or try different calibration.

Action Item [Jin]: remove event loop code for DSTReader to avoid people use DSTReader for full analysis. DST is the designed media between production and analysis code. DSTReader is just to do quick poke of data.

Action Item [volunteer welcomed]: put run info on run nodes, like beam energy. PHG4Parameter series of objects was suggested.

Action Item [volunteer welcomed]: Martin working on first result. Chris suggest use calibration object to correlate temperature to timestamp of events.

 

 

Simulation production for topical groups

 

Megan: any immediate action to recent topical group discussions on the simulation effort?

Jin/Chris: still in discussion. When specific detector configuration were defined, plan to run centralized calorimeter simulation set.

Subject: [reminder] sPHENIX simulation and software meeting, Tue Apr 19, 1PM EST @ 2-219

 

Hello everyone,

 

This is a reminder that we will have a (hopefully short) sPHENIX simulation and software meeting, Tue Apr 19, 1PM EST @ 2-219.

 

Currently on agenda:

·       Haiwang will a quick update on Kalman filter status.

·       I will introduce production for the on-going test beam and analysis for the EMCal energy resolution result.

More contributions are welcomed too.

 

The agenda page is at https://indico.bnl.gov/conferenceDisplay.py?confId=1906   , for which the common modification password is "1008"

•            For residents at BNL, we will meet at the 2-219 conference room this time
