TileCal Commissioning: offline software and analysis

ATLAS Releases

Release 10.3.0 of ATLAS software should be used for the reconstruction of commissioning data. Previous releases (e.g. 10.0.4) work as well but not all jobOptions files are available in those releases.

Detector Description

We are using full ATLAS Detector Description for simulation and reconstruction of the commissioning data. The easiest way to initialize GeoModel with TileCal only is to include TileGeoModel/TileGeoModel_jobOptions.py in your jobOptions. If you are including TileTBRec/TileTBGeoModel_jobOptions.py wrong geometry will be initialized.

Simulation

will be updated soon

Calibration

CIS calibration constants can be calculated inside Athena snd stored in POOL file (see UsingTileCalibAlgs). After that the POOL file can be registered in COOL database with TileC tool. For the moment we are using pcata007 as the database server and will migrate to coolpro soon.

Reconstruction

Reconstruction of data taken with Tile MobiDAQ

Analysis

Ntuple created with jobOptions_TileMobi.py is identical to the TileCal testbeam ntuple which we had in the past. The only difference is in the naming of the drawers: at the testbeam we had A0, A1, A2, C0, C1, C2, E0, E1, E2 and in commissioning ntuples we should have A13, A14, A45 A46, C13, C14, C45, C46
