PMCS Version History/Verification

Our verification effort is lead by Matt Wetstein (UMD). For each new version, we generator a Z to ee, Z to mm, and inclusive top sample, make a standard set of histograms, and compare against the previous version.

 

Version Comments Verification plots
     
t04.04.00; 1) Paul Telford's new code that has new muon efficiencies 2) Paul Telford's rewrite of pmcs_trig 3) Paul Telford's change to pmcs_chprt so that electrons have different tracking efficiencies than other charged particles 4) turn off electron-photon merging, seems to have bug  
t04.02.00 1) split em id efficiencies into hmtx and id1011 2) add a uparallel bias to the WZ met algorithm 3) turn on Andrew Askew's medium muon efficiecies measured from p13 data 4) better calc of MET for WZ algorithm with non-fiducial elecs 5) fix bug in wz met cal that occurs if events contains a photon over 5 GeV. bug went in 18 dec 03 6) lower thresholds for photons 7) p14 jet resolutions from Alexander Kupco

p14.07.00 1) remove non-fiducial electrons from smeared list by default 2) major rewrite of mapping code 3) add pointers between gen and smeared muons in native root tuple 4) add electron/photon merging (along with some variables in the native root tuple to let you know...) 5) better handling of electrons in zwang met algorithm 6) toycal met algorithm added 7) p14 tunes for electrons, wz met algorithm, tracking 8) add Andrew Askew's tune for local muon momentum
p14.06.00 1) protect against a feature in some pythia/mcpp combinations that can call quarks stable hadrons. affects pmcs_jet with using generator particle input (not toycal input) 2) slightly better calculation of muon detector eta zee zmm inclusive top dir jpsi-mumu (compared with p14.05.01)
p14.05.01 1) add ability to calculate fraction of each jets charged particle energy from b jets. store output in native root tuple 2) add tracking efficiency versus eta, store in native root tuple, and add switch to remove tracks according to that switch (off by default) 3) add em identification efficiency versus eta, store in native root tuple 4) turn on UE in zwang met algorith, size of 2.5 GeV 5) define electron angles using track if there in native root tuple 6) backport changes put into p15 below. zee zmm inclusive top (compared with p14.03.02)
p15.07.00 for some reason the histos of electron,muon,and tracking efficiency were not produced...Also, NOTE: We will no longer update the p15 branch. Please use p14 or test. zee zmm inclusive top
p15.06.00

add ability to write thumbnails

add ability to calculate fraction of each jets charged particle energy from b jets. store output in native root tuple

zee zmm inclusive top
p15.05.00

add les houches pdf's for pythia.

change default track smearing to p13 with cft fix (Paul Telford)

add charge to track and muon parts of native root tuple

add charge flip when 1/pt smears negative for tracks

p15.04.00

updated smearing for electrons/photons (p13 tune)

major update to wzruni MET smearing algorithm, so that it properly handles muons and photons.
