3. REST-for-Physics in a nutshell
16/03/2023, 08:30

A general overview of all the REST-for-Physics ecosystem, including:

  • Event data types, metadata classes and REST processes.
  • Core classes: TRestRun, TRestAnalysisTree, TRestDataSet, ...
  • Helper classes: TRestTools, TRestStringHelper, ...
  • Using units inside REST (TRestSystemOfUnits)
  • Physics constants (TRestPhysics)
  • Output levels (TRestStringOutput)
  • Code and data versioning...
4. Geant4 simulations using restG4
16/03/2023, 10:00

In this session we will learn about restG4 and the REST-for-Physics geant4lib that can be used to process the results obtained with a restG4 simulation.

The main components of a restG4 simulation will be described, such as particle generator, physics lists, GDML geometry, and geant4 metadata describing the simulation conditions.

Exercises:
- Visualise and modify a GDML geometry.
-...
5. Accessing data using REST-for-Physics
16/03/2023, 11:30

We will learn how to access REST-for-Physics generated data by different means, accessing metadata classes, reading analysis tree, or looping on events are some of the common tasks performed with REST.

Different ways to access the data will be introduced in different environments, using C-macros, python scripts, using restRoot interactive ROOT-shell, or exploring a file using a ROOT browser.
6. Event reconstruction and detector response in REST-for-Physics
16/03/2023, 14:30

During this session we will provide details about detector readout construction, how to use gas properties and how to process data that allow us to introduce different detector physics phenomenology in our MonteCarlo or experimental data.
7. Rawsignal processing in REST-for-Physics
16/03/2023, 17:00

The rawlib library will be introduced in further detail, reviewing a TRestRawSignalEvent structure.

We will see how to process signals to perform different signal conditioning operations, such as smoothing, fitting, shaping and/or analysing waveform properties.

8. Working on GitHub
17/03/2023, 09:00

We will learn in this session basic concepts about code development in teams, such as:

  • GitHub Pull-Requests
  • Validation pipelines and unit tests (What it is/How to build one)
  • Documenting using Doxygen
  • Creating issues and providing feedback!
  • Contribution guide and naming conventions
  • Good practices while contributing to common codes
9. Creating your own REST classes
17/03/2023, 10:50
  • Create a new metadata class
  • Create a new process
  • Modify an existing process
  • Build your own data processing flow using existing and your newly created process.
  • Compile your own REST-for-Physics library.
