MpsAnalysis

This is a piece of analysis code aimed at analysis beam and source data, and threshold scans. It is written for the 'classic' DAQ software framework, and hasn't yet been ported to our new analysis framework, because, well, such a thing doesn't yet exist.

Structure

Three files,

• inc/MpsAnalysis.hh - the usual interface, but with a rather perverse #include "MpsAnalysis.cc" so this code structure builds and fits with the DAQ software.
• src/MpsAnalysis.cc - contains the implementation
• src/mpsAnalysis.cc - the implementation of a main method: this provides the source for the build mpsAnalysis binary.

Once copied to your work area (where you have daquser, records and data directories already in place), use build mpsAnalysis to compile the code.

Executing

One can use mpsAnalysis -h to get, mpsAnalysis options: -b (int) Number of bunch trains, default 1000000000 -c (int) Number of configurations, default 1000000000 -n (int) Number of runs, default 1 -p (int) Print level, default 9 -a (int) MpsAnalysis bits, default 65535 -l (int) Low threshold, default 0 -u (int) Upper threshold, default 500 -i (int) Bins, default 0 Last (int) Run number, default 999999

For normal vanilla behavior over a typical threshold scan, I recommend,

mpsAnalysis -u 500 -i 500

You should then get,

MpsAnalysis::MpsAnalysis(unsigned int, int, int, int, int, int) RcdReaderBin::open() Opened file data/run/Run490084.000.bin void MpsAnalysis::populateSensorIds(SubAccessor) Sensor id for 1: 2 Sensor id for 2: 6 Sensor id for 3: 8 Sensor id for 4: 7 Found 1 writes in PCB configuration data, with v.size() = 5 void MpsAnalysis::makeHistograms(int*) Initialising histograms... bins: 500, lowEdge: 0, _highEdge: 500 Processing bunch train: 0 Processing bunch train: 1000 Processing bunch train: 2000 ...

When it's completed, you should find a ROOT file named MpsAnalysis_runNumber.root in your working directory.

Run types handled

At present, this code is designed for analysing beam test data: it handles,

• mpsBeamThresholdScan
• mpsThresholdScan
• mpsBeam
