EIC Tutorial: Kinematic Reconstruction: Glossary

Key Points

Introduction
  • Use xrdfs from within the eic-shell to browse available files from simulations campaigns.

  • Use xrdcp from within eic-shell to copy files to your local environment.

  • Access the reconstructed kinematics using the InclusiveKinematicsXX branches

Performance Benchmarks
  • Use ROOTFrameReader to process simulation files using the data types implemented in edm4hep/edm4eic.

Manual Reconstruction
  • The reconstruction methods all use some combination of the same basic information: Ee, theta_e, sigma_h, pt_h

Optimise Reconstruction
  • Some kinematics may favour a calorimeter based electron energy over a tracking based determination - check which is better for your analysis
