Instructions to analyze the MCP-PMTs CAEN digitizer data
A. Get a copy of the data:
In you terminal, do this command:
git clone git@github.com:Hattawy/MCPs_analysis_framework.git
The previous command will create “MCPs_analysis_framework” directory
that looks like this:
drwxrwxr-x 6 mhattawy mhattawy 4.0K Jun 22 16:22 analysis_framework
drwxrwxr-x 2 mhattawy mhattawy 4.0K Jun 22 10:15 python-scripts
-rw-rw-r-- 1 mhattawy mhattawy 43K Jun 22 10:10 MCPs-analysismanual.pdf
drwxrwxr-x 8 mhattawy mhattawy 4.0K Jun 22 10:09 wavedump-3.7.4
drwxrwxr-x 2 mhattawy mhattawy 4.0K Jun 22 10:09 documents
-rw-rw-r-- 1 mhattawy mhattawy 25 Jun 22 10:08 README.md
- analysis_framework: has the updated lappd framework to analyze CAEN
data.
- wavedump-3.7.4: has the software source files for the CAEN digitizer.
- documents: has CAEN digitizer pdf manuals.
- python-scripts: has python scripts written by Ed May to analyze the data.

B. Analyzing the data using lappd framework:

I. go inside analysis_framework
II. - Installation
1. Install the latest version of root on your linux/MasOS machine
(www.root.cern.ch).
2. Create a new folder Rootdev/ in any directory on your machine.
3. Create sub-folders lib/, include/ and bin/ in Rootdev/

4. In .bashrc, add the following lines:
#ROOT setting
export ROOTDEV=ROODEVTDIR/ # Replace ROOTDEVDIR by your path
export PATH=$ROOTDEV/bin/:$PATH
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ROOTDEV/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

5. Start a new terminal
6. Go to folder MCPs_analysis_framework/analysis_framework
8. Run install.sh ( you may need to do chmod +x install.sh)
Now the installation is done. The files can be found in Rootdev/bin
III. Analysis:
1. Go inside MCPs_analysis_framework/analysis_framework/lappd_rootanalyzer
2. add the directory of your new data inside the file
“run_lappd_root_all_runs”
3. run the compiler as ( ./run_lappd_root_all_runs initial_run_number
final_run_number)
This will do the whole process of converting the binary file to txtfile, then
process them with lappd, plot the individual distributions of each run and
creates a folder for each run.
Please feel free to ask if you have any question about running the scripts.
