Description

Simulated dataset for the 300 to 600 bin of QCD_Pt-15to3000_TuneZ2star_Flat_8TeV_pythia6 enriched with simulated tracks and tracker hit data for tracking algorithm studies in AODSIM format for 2012 collision data.

See the description of the simulated dataset names in: About CMS simulated dataset names.

These simulated data correspond to the collision data collected by the CMS experiment in 2012. They are in the standard CMS AODSIM format plus a series of low-level tracker-related collections that allow the extraction of the tracker hits. They were released in the context of data science sample production.

How were these data generated?

These data were generated in several steps (see also CMS Monte Carlo production overview):

Step SIM
Release: CMSSW_5_3_32
Global Tag: START53_V27
Configuration file for SIM (link)


Step HLT RECO
Release: CMSSW_5_3_32
Global Tag: START53_V27

To make these simulated data comparable with the collision data, pile-up events are added to the simulated event in this step.

The pile-up dataset is:

/MinBias_TuneZ2star_8TeV-pythia6/Summer12-START50_V13-v3/GEN-SIM

How were these data validated?

The generation and simulation of this dataset was done in the context of data science sample production and has not been validated through general CMS validation procedures.

How can you use these data?

You can access these data through the CMS Virtual Machine. See the instructions below for setting up the Virtual Machine and getting started. The dataset can also be used as an input to the final step of the workflow to produce ROOT ntuples with full event information for ML studies.
