Getting Started

Text background color convention

In this page, the following text background color convention is used:

GREY: For commands.

GREEN: For the output example of the executed commands (nearly what the user should see in his/her terminal).

PINK: For CMSSW parameter-set configuration files.

BLUE: For configuration files.

YELLOW: For any other type of file.

Checkout PPS FastSim Package

cd CMSSW_8_0_0_pre5/src
git clone  git@github.com:CTPPS/CTPPSFastSim.git .

CT-PPS Tools

The goal of this private package is to provide a set of useful tools for CEP studies using the CT-PPS detector.

DoubleArmFilter

This filter does the following:

• Checks if there are protons in trk1+trk2+ToFDet acceptance, in both CT-PPS arms;
• Checks which proton combination reconstruct a vertex compatible (in z) with the hardest vertex in the event, putting their indexes in a std::pair<size_t fwd_proton_idx,size_t bkw_proton_idx>;
• All combinations found are put in the event inside a std::vector<std::pair<size_t,size_t> >.

To get the filter:

$ cd CMSSW_8_0_12/src
$ cmsenv
$ git clone git@github.com:uerj-cms-cep-studies/CTPPSTools.git
$ git clone git@github.com:uerj-cms-cep-studies/DataUtils.git
$ scram b -j 8

On your configuration file add the follow statements:

process.load('CTPPSTools.Filters.doubleArmFilter_cfi')
process.doubleArmFilter.vertices = 'offlineSlimmedPrimaryVertices'
process.doubleArmFilter.tofRes = 50   #ToF resolution in ps

process.p1 = cms.Path(process.doubleArmFilter * [anything] )

To get the protons in your analyzer:

edm::EDGetTokenT<std::vector<std::pair<size_t,size_t> > > token;
edm::Handle<std::vector<std::pair<size_t,size_t> > > protons;
token = consumes<std::vector<std::pair<size_t,size_t> > >(edm::InputTag("doubleArmFilter","protons"))); // in your constructor
event.getByToken(token, protons); // in the event loop

Tips

How to access CERNBox directly from lxplus

source /afs/cern.ch/project/eos/installation/user/etc/setup.sh
export EOS_MGM_URL=root://eosuser.cern.ch
eosmount $HOME/eos

if it works, you will see something like this:

.... trying to create ... /afs/cern.ch/user/m/mdealmei/eos
OK
===> Mountpoint   : /afs/cern.ch/user/m/mdealmei/eos
===> Fuse-Options : kernel_cache,attr_timeout=30,entry_timeout=30,max_readahead=131072,max_write=4194304,fsname=eosuser.cern.ch root://eosuser.cern.ch//eos/
===> xrootd ra             : 131072
===> xrootd cache          : 393216
===> fuse debug            : 0
===> fuse write-cache      : 1
===> fuse write-cache-size : 100000000
