INTRODUCTION
This package is a standalone distribution for user analysis
of AMS Root files on Linux and Mac OS X operating systems.
It can be downloaded as follows (read mode):
cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@isscvs.cern.ch:/local/reps/amsroot checkout AMSRoot
Old version (compatible with AMS code structure on 04 May 2006):
cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@isscvs.cern.ch:/local/reps/amsroot checkout -r V10-10-2008 AMSRoot
See also the README file for technical
details of the package.
The standard AMS reconstruction output is a
ROOT file, in which
TTree event structures are built.
We have identified several possible modes to analyze these data:
- CINT :
an interactive analysis with CINT.
- STATIC :
a compiled analysis with a fully static executable.
- TSELECTOR :
an analysis (compiled or interpreted)
intended for parallel processing on several CPUs.
- PYTHON :
an analysis using the Python programming language.
Tools to have a fast feedback from AMS data:
- You can have a fast look to the contents of AMS Root files
via histograms with the BRowser
utility in the "browser" directory.
- A specific GUI utility to make fast 1D histograms of
AMS variables is ams_inspect .
It can be found in the "inspect" directory.
- You can visualize the events in AMS Root files
with the simple JScan utility
in the "scan" directory.
- A more sophisticated and complete scanning program
is amsed . Look in the
"display" directory
of the official AMS software repository for further details
on the installation.
- You can have a fast feedback of the contents of AMS Root files
via histograms with the offmon
offline monitoring program. Look in the "online" directory
of the official AMS software repository for further details
on the installation.
Additional utility/tool libraries:
