DaVinci Migration to DC06 page

Timescales

Code needed for DC06 stripping

The DC06 reconstruction and stripping will start beginning of June. The code has thus to be ready by the beginning of May to allow some time for testing.

To do:

• Test all options-based pre-selections
• Continue to review all code.
  • Remove obsolete stuff.
  • Avoid duplications of code. Always! No exceptions!
• More details in the various packages.

Desired features non essential for DC06 stripping.

• Split LoKi in pieces.
  • Merge DVAlgorithm and LoKi::Algo as much as possible.
  • Remove code duplications. In particular LoKi::Cuts and DaVinciFilter.
• Adapt to python options.
• Unify string parsing.

Packages status

Warning: DC04 developments sit on a branch CVS branch DC04b. DC06 developments are in head.

Phys/DaVinciKernel

In charge: DaVinci Librarian

Purpose: Contains all interfaces, DVAlgorithm and the PhysDesktop.

Status (20/04): Release v4r2. All interfaces have been translated to the new event model. DVAlgorithm and PhysDesktop compile. DVAlgorithm modified to allow LoKi::Algo to inherit from it. Possible to have full DVAlgorithm from LoKi::Algo.

Todo (longer time scale):

• PhysDesktop or DVAlgorithm: Create a table associating the created Particle and the PV that has been used to create it. See also Interfaces

Phys/DaVinciTransporter

In charge: Patrick K.

Purpose: Transporter (extrapolator) tools for particles. Used to contain a lot of duplications of track extrapolators, but for Particles. Now that the track extrapolators extrapolate States one can translate any Particle to a State and back.

Status (20/04): DC06-compatible release v3r0. Created one tool ParticleTransporter that calls TrackExtrapolators depending on what kind of Particle to extrapolate. Should be able to replace all DC04 transporters. The geometry tools have been moved here and compile too.

To do (for DC06 stripping):

• Test.
• Check if any other transporters are needed.

Do not duplicate extrapolators code!

Phys/ParticleMaker

In charge: Global Particle ID Task Force

Purpose: Contains all tools making Particles from ProtoParticles.

Status (20/04):

• DC06-compatible release v2r2.
• Reinstated CombinedParticleMaker for DC06
  • Uses ProtoParticles now produced in Brunel
  • Delegates ProtoParticle selection to ProtoParticleFilter package To do (for DC06 stripping):
• Test.
• Re-implement pi0 making

Phys/VertexFit & Phys/VertexFitChecker

In charge: Yuehong Xie

Purpose: Vertex fitters and re-fitters.

Status (21/04): DC06-compatible release v3r0. OfflineVertexFitter (Yuehong) works for everything, including photons. Tested on 500 J/Psi(mumu)Ks events with MCParticleMaker.

Phys/DaVinciFilter

In charge: DaVinci librarian

Phys/CommonParticles

In charge: Olivier Deschamps and DaVinci Librarian

Status (20/07): Options-based particles tested and working: stable charged particles and J/Psi. All others untested.

To do (for DC06 stripping):

• Get Pi0-making to work. Ready as of 13 Sep 2006 (in $LHCBDEV)
• Declare Pi0 to on-demand service. Ready as of 13 Sep 2006 (in $LHCBDEV)
• Test and develop intermediate states.

Phys/FlavourTagging & Phys/FlavourTaggingChecker

In charge: Marco Musy

Purpose: Flavour tagging.

Status (20/04): Nothing Done. Not in Phys for now.

To do (for DC06 stripping):

• Get it to compile.
• Put in PHYS

Requires

• Pre-selections or loose selecions could be OK for tagging.
• Reasonable channel selections must be ready for checking.

Phys/DaVinciAssociators

Phys/DaVinciMCTools

In charge: Stefania Vecchi for the MCParticleMaker. Vladimir Gligorov for BackgroundCategory. And for the rest DaVinci librarian

Purpose: All low-level tools and algorithm that need access to MC truth.

Status (20/04): DC06 version v7r1. New MCParticleMaker compiles, runs, creates Particles. Covariance matrix and Linker table between Particles and MCParticles implemented. Allows to test some code using Gauss events. Some trivial algorithms compile too. DebugTool and TrueMCFilterCriterion restored
