L1Calo Testbeam 2004 Run Information

At the testbeam we took data both in standalone mode and combined with the test of the testbeam DAQ system.

Combined runs

These runs are all stored in CASTOR with filenames of the form /castor/cern.ch/atlas/testbeam/combined/2004/daq_SFI-51_combined_RRRRRRR.fileNN.data where RRRRRRR is the run number and NN is a sequence number of the file within the run, typically 01, 02, etc.

Note that more full (and official) information about combiend test beam data can be found through the AMI database. For details of how to search this and for other lists of runs and files, see Jürgens web page.

In many of the following runs the L1Calo system missed a few events. Detailed information about this may be found in this mail from Steve.

NB the CP chip firmware had the following thresholds "hard coded": 20, 50, 100, 200, 255, 255, 255, 255. (For all the above runs?).

Standalone runs

These runs were written locally to our SFI machine pctb-lar-sfi01 (only accessible via firewall from lxplus) with filenames like /data/l1calo/standalone/daq_SFI-111_COMMENT_RRRRRRR_fileNN.data where COMMENT was (sometimes) used to identify the type of data, RRRRRRR is the run number and NN the file sequence number.

All completed files (ending in .data, not .writing) over 1Mbytes have now been copied to CASTOR with filenames of the form /castor/cern.ch/user/l/landon/atlas/l1calo/tb2004/daq_SFI-111_COMMENT_RRRRRRR.fileNN.data.

I will only add a table of these standalone runs if someone tells me that would be useful. They may be described in the scanned logbook pages available via the testbeam web page at RAL
