Description
CMS measures the luminosity using different luminometers (luminosity detectors) and algorithms.
The integrated luminosity for validated runs and luminosity sections of the 2.76TeV proton-proton collision data, needed as reference data for heavy-ion data analysis, taken in 2013 (Run2013A) is available in Run2013Alumi.txt.
For luminosity calculation, a detailed list of luminosity by lumi section is provided in pphiref_2013lumibyls.csv for the list of validated runs and lumi sections.
The uncertainty in the luminosity measurement of 2013 data should be considered as 3.7% (reference Luminosity Calibration for the 2013 Proton-Lead and Proton-Proton Data Taking).
In your estimate for the integrated luminosity, check for which runs the trigger you have selected is active and sum the values for those runs. For prescaled triggers, the change of prescales (run, lumi section, index of prescales referring to the PrescaleService module in the High-Level Trigger configuration files) is recorded in prescale_pphiref2013.csv.
Additional information on how to extract luminosity values using the brilcalc tool can be found in the luminosity calculation guide.
