Muon calibration tutorial
Welcome to the Muon Calibration Tutorial Page! After doing this tutorial, you will be able to run Athena, make your ntuples containing segment information. This ntuple can then be used as input to do analysis with help of the skeleton analysis package provided. This analysis package CalibSegmentAnalysis relies heavily on the Calibration framework but is Athena independent.
Much information on validation, calibration and alignment can be found at the MuonSpectrometer homepage.
Introduction
Calibration
General information about the need of calibration in the MuonSpectrometer.
Calibration framework
A clear Wiki page on the Calibration Framework by Domizia and Niels can be found on the MuonCalibrationFramework Wiki. At this site, the Calibration EDM is explained.
Why segments?
Maybe needed to explain the concept of segments and the calibration EDM, is to be written (work in progress). A starting point of Calibration Segments and its scope in the Reconstruction EDM can be found in a presentation given by Zdenko during the ATLAS Muonweek september-2005 called Calibration Segment Ntuple
Getting started
In order to get started one should know that this field is prone to many changes over time. Backward compatibility is surely broken since the ntuple format changed a lot in the period of november 2005. The ntuple format is defined by the MuonCalib package (MuonCalibNtuple), and the analysis package needs a certain ntuple format to be able to fill the MuonCalib EDM classes offline. In the following sections, recipes will be provided for different kinds of ntuple formats.
