Software Validation CMS CERN-LHC

Description

This is a simple comparison code to validate the reprocessing step on the Open Data VM by comparing the resulting file (newly rereconstructed from the RAW data sample available on the Open Data Portal) and the original AOD (also available on the Open Data portal). It loops over different physics objects (tracks, electrons, muons, photons, jets, taus and missing et) and fills histograms with P, pt, eta and phi of these objects.

Use with

Use this to compare an AOD file produced with this record to:

/MinimumBias/Run2011A-12Oct2013-v1/AOD

Characteristics

1 files. 16.7 KiB in total.

System details

Use this code with the CMS Open Data VM environment for 2011 open data
Software release: CMSSW_5_3_32

CMS VM Image, for 2011, 2012 and 2015 CMS open data

How can you use this?

If you do not have the CERN Virtual Machine for 2011 CMS data installed, follow the instructions in step 1 and step 2 at How to install a CERN Virtual Machine. Then follow the instructions in GitHub.
