EGamma Electron Tracking Validation

How To Run

Run the following commands to download, compile, and run the analysis routine.

# The recursive clone makes sure to also checkout the filval submodule.
git clone --recursive https://git.fangmeier.tech/caleb/EGamma_ElectronTrackingValidation.git
cd EGamma_ElectronTrackingValidation
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make
./tracking_validation -l LABEL -f PATH_TO_NTUPLE

Where LABEL is an arbitrary string used to keep track of, for example, what dataset is contained in the source Ntuple, and PATH_TO_NTUPLE is the path to the trackingNtuple.root file that you want to run over.

If everything runs successfully, there will be a log file and new root file in the directory containing the source Ntuple. If there are errors, you can check the log file for hints to what happened. The new root file will be suffixed with "_result".

TODO:

• Enable specifying multiple root files to chain together.
