h1analysis.C File Reference

Detailed Description

Example of analysis class for the H1 data.

This file uses 4 large data sets from the H1 collaboration at DESY Hamburg. One can access these data sets (277 MBytes) from the standard Root web site at: https://root.cern/files/h1/ The Physics plots below generated by this example cannot be produced when using smaller data sets.

There are several ways to analyze data stored in a Root Tree

• Using TTree::Draw: This is very convenient and efficient for small tasks. A TTree::Draw call produces one histogram at the time. The histogram is automatically generated. The selection expression may be specified in the command line.
• Using the TTreeViewer: This is a graphical interface to TTree::Draw with the same functionality.
• Using the code generated by TTree::MakeClass: In this case, the user creates an instance of the analysis class. They have the control over the event loop and he can generate an unlimited number of histograms.
• Using the code generated by TTree::MakeSelector. Like for the code generated by TTree::MakeClass, the user can do complex analysis. However, they cannot control the event loop. The event loop is controlled by TTree::Process called by the user. This solution is illustrated by the current code. The advantage of this method is that it can be run in a parallel environment using PROOF (the Parallel Root Facility).

A chain of 4 files (originally converted from PAW ntuples) is used to illustrate the various ways to loop on Root data sets. Each data set contains a Root Tree named "h42" The class definition in h1analysis.h has been generated automatically by the Root utility TTree::MakeSelector using one of the files with the following statement:

h42->MakeSelector("h1analysis");

This produces two files: h1analysis.h and h1analysis.C (skeleton of this file) The h1analysis class is derived from the Root class TSelector.

The following members functions are called by the TTree::Process functions.

• Begin(): Called every time a loop on the tree starts. A convenient place to create your histograms.
• Notify(): This function is called at the first entry of a new Tree in a chain.
• Process(): Called to analyze each entry.
• Terminate(): Called at the end of a loop on a TTree. A convenient place to draw/fit your histograms.

To use this file, try the following sessions

Root > gROOT->Time(); /// will show RT & CPU time per command

Case A: Create a TChain with the 4 H1 data files

The chain can be created by executed the short macro h1chain.C below:

{
  TChain chain("h42");
  chain.Add("$H1/dstarmb.root");  ///   21330730 bytes  21920 events
  chain.Add("$H1/dstarp1a.root"); ///   71464503 bytes  73243 events
  chain.Add("$H1/dstarp1b.root"); ///   83827959 bytes  85597 events
  chain.Add("$H1/dstarp2.root");  ///  100675234 bytes 103053 events
  /// where $H1 is a system symbol pointing to the H1 data directory.
}

Case B: Loop on all events

Root > chain.Process("h1analysis.C")

Case C: Same as B, but in addition fill the entry list with selected entries.

The entry list is saved to a file "elist.root" by the Terminate function. To see the list of selected events, you can do elist->Print("all"). The selection function has selected 7525 events out of the 283813 events in the chain of files. (2.65 per cent)

Root > chain.Process("h1analysis.C","fillList")

Case D: Process only entries in the entry list

The entry list is read from the file in elist.root generated by step C

Root > chain.Process("h1analysis.C","useList")

Case E: The above steps have been executed via the interpreter.

You can repeat the steps B, C and D using the script compiler by replacing "h1analysis.C" by "h1analysis.C+" or "h1analysis.C++" in a new session (see F).

Case F: Create the chain as in A, then execute

Root > chain.Process("h1analysis.C+","useList")

The same analysis can be run on PROOF. For a quick try start a PROOF-Lite session

Root > TProof *p = TProof::Open("")

create (if not already done) the chain by executing the 'h1chain.C' macro mentioned above, and then tell ROOT to use PROOF to process the chain:

Root > chain.SetProof()

You can then repeat step B above. Step C can also be executed in PROOF. However, step D cannot be executed in PROOF as in the local session (i.e. just passing option 'useList'): to use the entry list you have to

Case G: Load first in the session the list form the file

Root > TFile f("elist.root")
Root > TEntryList *elist = (TEntryList *) f.Get("elist")

set it on the chain:

Root > chain.SetEntryList(elist)

call Process as in step B. Of course this works also for local processing.
