Run2012B_DoubleElectron dataset in Run1 NanoAOD-like format

CMS Open Data group

Dataset Derived CMS 8TeV pp CERN-LHC Parent Dataset:


Description

Run2012B_DoubleElectron dataset in a NanoAOD-like research-level Ntuple format for CMS Run1 data, readable with bare ROOT or other ROOT-compatible software, and containing the per-event information that is needed in most generic analyses. In contrast to the CMS NanoAOD which is derived from MiniAOD, this dataset is processed directly from the AOD format with code provided by the CMS open data group. Not all variables are available. Nevertheless, there is a large overlap in functionality and content between this format and the standard NanoAOD such that common analyses are possible.

The dataset is provided as a collection of root files. Run2012B_DoubleElectron_merged.root contains the separate files merged into one file. This dataset was processsed from the primary dataset in AOD format linked below.
