Introduction

This page is a work in progress and contains information to remind myself how to run things.

Running ATLAS jobs locally

Log into heplnx109.pp.rl.ac.uk and do kinit

source /gridsoft/SL5/atlas/software/15.6.6/setup.sh -tag=15.6.6,setup,32
export CMTPATH=${HOME}/testarea/15.6.6:${CMTPATH}
cd testarea/15.6.6/

The analysis

Running on the grid

Location of files

Local file for testing purposes

athenaCommonFlags.FilesInput = [ "/home/hep/dewhurst/data/mc09_valid.108407.Pythia_directJpsimu4mu4.merge.AOD.e347_s585_s582_r812_r814_tid096141/AOD.096141._000006.pool.root.1"]

There is a list of interesting physics runs which can be found here. You can find the runs you are looking for with the atlas run query tool. For the initial data taking period the B-Physics group is putting their Ntuples here.

Downloading files to RAL PPD

To download files directly to the dcache storage element at RAL do this:

source /afs/cern.ch/atlas/offline/external/GRID/ddm/DQ2Clients/setup.sh
voms-proxy-init -voms atlas
dq2-get -S srm://heplnx204.pp.rl.ac.uk:8443/srm/managerv2?SFN=/pnfs/pp.rl.ac.uk/data/atlas/atlasralppdisk/dewhurst/ user.JamesCatmore.155697.f261_m496.muonstream_StandardGRL_prelim_muon_yellowPlus_7TeV-v02-pass1.staco/

Make sure you are not in the dcache element (ie do cd $HOME) otherwise you will get an error that you are in a read only file system.

Jpsi Information

All information is being stored on the sharepoint which can be found here. This information is likely to become rapidly out of date. There is a daily BPhys meeting at 3pm (UK time) via Evo. Plots of di-muon candidates can be found here.

Meetings of note:

• A list of all recent B-Physics meetings
• First J/psi event in the ID Tracking Resonance weekly meeting 13/4/10
• J/psi -> mumu/ee approval meeting 12/4/10
• Informal meeting on J/psi -> mumu 9/4/10
