################
Raw_data raw binary files from DAQ. One file for each digitizer.
Raw data could be directly red from the output directory of the DAQ
Calib_files Calibration files. They are used by converter.C to get the charge calibration and
the physical physical channel from the electronics channel.
-----------
* channel2pad.txt pad mapping. from electronics channel to pad number.
pad# corresponds to channels 0,1,2,...n
!!Do not change data formatting and the number of comment lines!!
* chargeCalib_PA.txt charge calibration parameters (assuming a y=a*x) taking
into account only the preamplifiers calibration for the moment
!!Do not change data formatting and the number of comment lines!!
Cal_data calibrated root files, still one file for each digitizer.
Not really necessary after Merged data are produced, can be erased.
Merged_data One file for each run, all the data form different digitizers are merged in a
single file where the entries are ordered by time (raw+fine)
Clusterd_data File where all the data from Merged data are reorganized in cluster
Each entry is now a cluster no more an hit.
Analysis Analysis Macros that can be considered working properly and are
Analysis_Temp Analysis directory where are te

FILES
####################
converter_nudaq.C converts the raw data produced by nudaq DAQ from binary to root, calibrates
the charge and pads #
Input from Raw_data
channel2pad.txt
chargeCalib_PA.txt
Output to Cal_data
use: converter_nudaq.C("Raw_data/Run_18/dig22642.bin",22642,"Cal_data/out.root")
converter_solaris_tracker.C converts the raw data produced by solaris DAQ for the tracker from
binary to root, calibrates
the charge and pads #
Input from Raw_data
channel2pad.txt
chargeCalib_PA.txt
Output to Cal_data
use: converter_solaris.C("Raw_data/~/solaris/RAW_data/tracker_and_sic/tracker_and_sic_116_01_22642_000.sol",22642,"Cal_data/out.root")
converter_solaris_tracker.cc same as onverter_solaris_tracker.C but do not use root, uses its libraries.
UNDER DEVELOPMENT
use: for the moment the input data name, the digitizer ID, the output
file name must be introduced explicitely inside the code.
merger.C merge 2 root files at a time
Input from Cal_data
Output to Cal_data
dataProcessing.sh Shell script that use converter_xxx_.C and merger.C generating in the final merged
file in a single step. Require in input just run number
check the correct path where the file are.
$ dataProcessing n
where n is the number of the run
compila.sh Shell script that compile converter.cc
