Hi Tony

 

> hat code has to interface the data to the reconstruction software, and so we should be discussing what we need it to produce.

 

For TPC, I don’t think we have the module for the final event format yet. But I wrote the module unpacking the test beam data using Martin’s Event interface:

https://sphenix-collaboration.github.io/doxygen/dd/d60/classTpcPrototypeUnpacker.html

It output TPC hit to our standard TrkHit containers: TpcPrototypeUnpacker::exportDSTHits()

For simplicity, I also did the clustering in the same module:  int TpcPrototypeUnpacker::exportDSTCluster(ClusterData& cluster, const int iclus)

 

In the same repo, there are also MVTX unpacker from Yasser for the last test beam data at

https://sphenix-collaboration.github.io/doxygen/d2/d5b/classMvtxPrototype2UnpackPRDF.html

 

I am not sure the status of INTT unpacker and the readout is still in development. But the unpacker with the PHENIX readout chain is offline/packages/fvtx_subsysreco/FvtxUnpackPRDF at https://phenix-intra.sdcc.bnl.gov/WWW/offline/doxygen/html/dd/d44/classFvtxUnpackPRDF.html

 

Cheers

Hi All,

 

During our discussion today in the software meeting about the raw data format, it seemed to me that we are missing a step. The raw data consists of packets, the reconstruction software expects to see assembled events.

 

Who is writing the code that converts packets to assembled events? That code has to interface the data to the reconstruction software, and so we should be discussing what we need it to produce. That discussion should happen soon ....

 

Thanks

Tony
