EIC Tutorial: Reconstruction Algorithms in JANA2: Glossary

Key Points

Introduction
  • EICrecon is the reconstruction piece of ePIC software.

Work Environment for EPIC Reconstruction Software
  • Use eicrecon executable to run reconstruction on a podio input file and to create podio output file.

Creating a plugin to make custom histograms/trees
  • Plugins can be used to generate custom histograms by attaching directly to the reconstruction process.

  • Plugins can be used for monitoring or custom analysis.

Creating or modifying a JANA factory in order to implement a reconstruction algorithm
  • Create a factory for reconstructing single subdetector data or for global reconstruction.

Contibuting code changes to the EICrecon repository
  • Write code in a style consistent with the rest of the repository.

  • Contributions should be made through the GitHub Pull Request mechansim.
