PMD DA

PMD-DA -----Two tasks

--- Calculation of Calibration constants

--- Calculation of Pedestal mean and rms

Calibration algorithm is plugged in AliPMDCalibgain.cxx. Output file

“pmd_calib.root” exported to DAQ FXS.

The algorithm to calculate Pedestal mean and rms is plugged in

AliPMDCalibpedestal.cxx.

Output file “pmd_ped.root” is exported to DAQ FXS.

STATUS: PMD-DA is written and code in CVS. Validation is waited.

PMD DA

Shuttle Pre-processor:PMD pre-processor is ready and in CVS and Validated in nightly test run.

Run Types:For Calibration : PHYSICS For Pedestal : PEDESTAL_RUN

Detector calibration algorithms from ESDs/ESDfriends for second pass reconstruction (special focus: which data from ESDs/ESDfriends is needed).

PMD Calibration has to be done before ESD is made. PMD doesn’trequire calibration from ESDs/ESDfriends.
