Bookkeeping of the Calorimeter Commissioning Data

This page provides useful information about the data samples stored during the commissioning phase of the calorimeters.
Much more data files than described here have be stored. Only the most relevant are detailled below. If you are looking for other data please send me a mail

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ABOUT DATA TAKING DURING COMMISSIONING SESSIONS CAN BE FOUND IN THE LOG BOOK

Instructions

The DAQ commissioning data possibly exist in several format : mdf and/or raw depending on the DAQ setup :
Each event in mdf format contains a single trigger. Each event in raw format possibily matches a sequence of several consecutive triggers. In this case the corresponding rawEvents are located in different TES pathes : DAQ/Prev1, DAQ/Next2, ...
The 'Time Alignment Events' (TAE) correspond to a trigger sequence of consecutive BCID.

OBSOLETE : MDF FORMAT NOW SUPPORTS TAE STRUCTURE. 'RAW' FILES ARE NO LONGER PRODUCED

data location

Data taken using the LHCb storage system

The stored data have a MDF format (with .raw extension).
On the online system the data files are stored at location like :
/daqarea/lhcb/data/2008/RAW/LHCb/PHYSICS/[run]/

The data are also transfered on Castor at :
/castor/cern.ch/ grid /lhcb/data/2008/RAW/LHCb/PHYSICS/
(some old files had been stored at /castor/cern.ch/lhcb/online/point8/2008/RAW/LHCb/PHYSICS/)

Data taken using the local Event Builder (within Orwell framework) OBSOLETE

The data files can be found Castor storage system at :

/castor/cern.ch/lhcb/online/point8/calo/

Some of the files are also replicated at :

/afs/cern.ch/lhcb/group/calo/ecal/vol9/odescham/commissioning/data/

Most of the data listed below have been analysed using the Orwell application and monitoring ntuples have been produced. These ntuples (root and hbook format) can be found at :

/castor/cern.ch/lhcb/online/point8/calo/ntp/

and are partially replicated at :

/afs/cern.ch/lhcb/group/calo/ecal/vol9/odescham/commissioning/ntp/

Naming convention

Data taken using the LHCb storage system

The file name convention is : [run]_000XXXX.raw

Data taken with the local Event Builder (Orwell framework) OBSOLETE

The convention for data file naming is : [data]_[date]_[number].[type]
with
[data] = hcal / prs / ecal / ...
[type] = mdf / raw / root / hbook
[date] format is [mm][dd]

The files are usually located in directories named com[date]/ with [mm][yy] as the date format.

  • (1) PM gain is "nominal", but corrected on the spread of PM quantum efficiencies + different
formula to recalculate HV on PM ("alternative" setting which is not stored in DB); LED LV = nominal
  • (2) Time scan, 13 points, 800 evt/point
  • (3) 20/07/2008 : LED LV settings are changed in DB regarding previous data taken on 18/07/2008.
  • (4) Reference sample after switching OFF and ON HV
  • (5) WRONG LED setting discovered for run 27402 to 27414. They have been repeated with correct setting with run 27427 to 27434
  • (6) Time scan, 13 points, 1600 evt/point

Setup :

Comments :
- Some hot channels (responsible of high trigger rate) were identified and removed from the trigger path :
-- Ecal crate#14 FEB#7 channel 19
-- Ecal crate#14 FEB#8 channel 29,30 & 31
When these channels are removed from the trigger the 'cosmics' trigger rate decrease from ~220 Hz to ~20Hz.
Seems to remains few (less) hot channels in Ecal and Hcal. To be identified with detailed study of the output files.
- ADC=-256 in PIN-FEB (Ecal crate 11) have disappeared but observed intermittent ADC=-256 problem in Ecal crate#10 FEB#8 (very few events - occurs on several channels)
- L0ADC.vs.ADC have now a much correct shape although the configuration is the same as for 06/07 february run. Seems to remain some problems in crate 11.
- L0DU algorithm as for 06/07 february run (see below).

Data content :
- Ecal crates : Full C-side except ecTell12 (part of crate 13 & 14)
- Hcal crates : Full C-side except hcTell04 (half of crate 24)
- ODIN-FE
- L0DU

Setup :
NEW Tell1 f/w : 2.39
MEP factor = 3 Ecal HV = nominal
Hcal HV = 1.3 kV

Comments :

The previous problem ADC=-256 for Ecal FIXED for most of CROC
was due to bad default configuration of Ecal FEBs -> Frederic should fix the default recipes.
- the problem remains for pin-DIODE FEB in Ecal crate 11.
- In addition : intermittent problem with FEB/Crate code = 0 in header for crate 11 FEB6
- In addition : L0ADC vs ADC is not correct for some data from crate 11.
All these problems are probably related to a bad synchro setting for CROC/FEB in crate 11

Again difficulties to configure the Croc/FEB via PVSS

(1) External L0 : C1=ET(electron)>20 and C2=ET(had)>3 [same as for cosmics run on 12/20/2007]
(2) : Pb ADC = -256 in Ecal full FEBs or few channels/FEB. Hot channels (inner Ecal) leads to large trigger rates.
(3) : ADC pb fixed (except for PIN-FEB in Ecal crate 11). Inner Ecal removed from trigger path.
