Version History:
2-3:
- New Makefile and sfmakedepend. (Jeff Templon, 3/31)
sfmakedepend is available at ~rom/bin, and also on www.
- Linux compatibility modifications from Jeff (3/31).
The obviuosly safe ones were installed; the less safe ones
were left in the new /linux directory (see README there).
In a future patch the Makefile will allow easy Linux compilation.
- FPP code (Ed Brash, et.al., 4/26)
- First version of Aerogel code. (Ed Brash, 4/26)
- Treatment of helicity information. (EJB, 4/26)
BCM and helicity merged in scaler_update, which needs to
be rewritten (see notes in scaler_update) (RWM)
- Repairs to tracking and beam_vertex (Juncai Gao, 5/14)
Big improvment in Ytarget, works for O16 experiment but
beam_vertex needs to be rewritten for cryotarget.
- Improvements to coincidence time-of-flight. (Nilanga, 5/14)
- New DATABASE which contains optics (it is tied to new
tracking, so don't mix old database with new code, etc).
Database also contains Aerogel constants.
- First version of Lead-glass code. (Surik Mehrabyan, 5/15).
Calibration and cluster-finding algorithms, some particle ID.
If you don't have calibration file, it uses default
constants. Some documentation is promised soon.
patch 1:
- Error in kinematic correction for hadron arm removed
- crashes occuring when scanning data in a loop (scan ...
CHOPT=-l) have been resolved
2-2:
- New fpp software installed in espace.
2-1:
- target model 1 has been extended. It is now possible to have
multiple foils. espace will
determine in which foil scattering happened and investigate
through which foils in- and
out- going particles will pass. Energy loss in these foils is
corrected for.
- Bug in routine beam_to_transport of the
kinematics library fixed. This bug
caused errors in the kinematic correction for extended targets.
2-0:
- espace and espace_sim (a special version to analyze AEEXB
simulated data) have been combined
- CODA configuration file is extracted automatically from the
data file unless the set/detmap-file
command is issued.
- scaler information as stored by CODA has changed. Routine in
espace updated but not
compatible anymore with old data
- variables spec_e.x_det, spec_e.y_det,
spec_e.th_det and spec_e.ph_det
and spec_e.s1.x_scint, spec_e.s1.y_scint have been
removed (where spec_e can be replaced by spec_h
and s1 by s2 or s3).
Instead use now spec_e.u1.x_det,
spec_e.u1.y_det, spec_e.s1.x_det, etc.
- target thickness should be given in g/cm^2 (!!), however was
interpreted in previous versions
as being in mg/cm^2.
1-13:
- Bug (introduced in version 1-11) in calculating the
'Kinematic' momentum correction fixed.
- Bug in fitting the offsets (y000 and p000) in the focal plane
vertex has been fixed.
- The covariance matrix of the focal plane vertex (due to errors
in the measured drift time) is propagated to the target vertex
- Improved handling of different trigger types: "2-out-of-4"
trigger is now analyzed correctly.
- Spectra of variables related to a spectrometer that is not
being analyzed are now empty (as they should be).
- New installation procedure is implemented (thanks to Jeff
Templon).
patch 6:
patch 3:
- New fpp routines.
- Bug in distance calculation routine
dist_detector_vertex removed.
- Vertex covariance matrix contains multiple scattering
contribution of spectrometer exit window.
1-12:
- Bug (introduced in version 1-11) when fitting the
reconstructed vertex at the target is fixed.
- In the file, showing the results of tensor elements for the
vertex reconstruction, a warning is given when the correlation
between tensor coefficients is larger than 0.95.
- F-test is performed in multi-dim space when fitting the tensor
coefficients. Those that fail the test are automatically removed.
- known problem: ESPACE is still not
interpretting the "2-out-of-4" trigger correctly.
1-11:
- 'Kinematic' momentum corrections are now performed exactly,
previous versions made only a first order approximation
- The alias file for PAW does not contain an entry for an NTUPLE
(was useless).
- ESPACE and its libraries are now Sun Solaris compatible.
1-10:
- After a scan, a file is saved in which the information about
the logicals imposed on the spectra are stored (thanks to Ed Brash
and Dan Zainea)
- A bug in the variable TDC (introduced in version 1.9) has been
removed.
- Preshower (ADC/TDC) and shower (ADC) spectra are now
operational
