Muon Analysis

Tablemaker

Overview

The DQ Framework provides a useful family of tools for acquiring derived data in Run 3 - especially for Muon analysis. These are all called table-makers, which are extremely configurable and are meant to allow you to skim the large datasets down to only the useful components for your analysis - which are referred to as reduced tables.

This does not mean that it is simple to use, unfortunately...

Here are some links to documentation to get started:

• Documentation for forward track analysis
• Latest O2 analysis tutorial
• PWG-DQ documentation, for up to date information.
• For fancy configuration see here.
• O2Physics code for PWG-DQ, for code-specific details.

The typical things that are configured in the table-maker:

• Event and Moun Cuts (NB).
• Derived tables to be outputted.
• QC Histograms
• MC Signal definitions (only for MC datasets).

This is not at all an extensive list. The configuration will highly depend on the analysis and is non-trivial.

Analysing Derived Data

The DQ Framework does also provide table-reader tasks to run on the derived data outputted bu the table-maker. These also need to be configured properly depending on the requirement of the analysis.
