Be carefull, the arguments have slightly changed. - Implemented generalized event-matrices (one row per event) (MHMatrix) - implemented the one dimensional composite probabilities (MHCompProb, MCompProbCalc, comprob.C) - implemented the Multidimensional Distances (Next Neighbours, Kernel) (MMultiDimDistCalc, multidimdist.C, multidimdist2.C, MHMatrix) - Added a camera display displaying the pixel numbers to the event display gui. - Added Monte Carlo Informations to event display gui - Changed the camera display to display the pixel numbering - Added three buttons to the camera display to change the palette - Added the number of used and core pixels after image cleaning to MHillas - Changed the algorithm used in MHillas according to TDAS 02-03 - Changed the Alpha range according to TDAS 02-03 to [-90°,90°] - Changed the algorithm used in MHillasSrc according to TDAS 02-03 - Added fCosDeltaAlpha to MHillasSrc - The numbers of photons used to calculate fConc and fConc1 in MHillasExt are now scaled with the pixel size, so that one get a four times smaller value for the bigger pixels in the outer ring. - added new task to smooth the camera contents (MCameraSmooth) - added possibility to use interpolated pixel values for blind pixels instead of removing it completely from the analysis - Implemented the possibility to save the whole eventloop with its setup to a file. This information can be read and from it you can (re)create a Macro. See MEvtLoop::Read, MEvtLoop::Write and MEvtLoop::MakeMacro. If you find something not working, please report - this stuff is still in a beta phase. - MBlindPixelCalc set all Ceta-Tauri pixels to unused not only for the file having crab starfield, but also for all following files - fixed - MTaskList::PrintStatistics can now be instructud to print also the title, too: use PrintStatistics(0, kTRUE) - Changed the image cleaning so that pixels with to many 'used' neighbors are left used (to get rid of 'holes' in events) - Introduced more output to the camera displays - Added an array of histograms (eg one hist per run), MHArray - Added a _preliminary_ version of the reader for CT1 PreProc files (MCT1ReadPreProc) - Fixed the error calculation of MHMCollectionArea and MHMcIntRate (thanks to Raquel) - added the first energy estimator (MEnergyEstParam, estimate.C, estfit.C) using a parametrization - Added some new Monte Carlo paremeter containers used to store setup information from the MC chain (MMcConfigRunHeader, MMcCorsikaRunHeader, MGeomPMT, MGeomMirror) *** Version 0.7 (2002/04/30) - added a bugfix to MCerPhotCalc. In older camera versions (<=40) the pedestal mean value was saved incorrectly. For files from this versions we substract 0.5 from the pedestal mean. WARNING: This may effect your results, so don't wonder... - First implementation of an algorithm using only triggered events for the collection area calculation - Ascii Output can now also be used for parameter containers which doesn't overload MParCointainer::AsciiWrite - The Ascii Output is now also capable of writing single data members of one container - You are now able to change the order of the values written to the ascii file - You can now specify a conversion factor for each data member written to an ascii file. This may be usefull to change the units of the data member (eg. degrees instead of millimeters in case of the hillas parameters) - Replaced old MHillas by a new structure which allows you to extend the parameters stored in MHillas very easily: see MHillas and MHillasExt - Added classes to handle source dependancy of image parameters: see MHillasSrc - Added container (MBinning) to have a standard input for the binning in different histograms (eg. the Energy bins should be the same in all histograms) - Changed Hillas histograms from mm to deg - Added the flexible binning to the hillas histograms - Added a filter for the alpha parameter (MFAlpha) - It is now possible to write single data members of a class object to an output stream instead of the whole container only - Added a generalized filter for a data member: MFDataMember filter("MHillas.fWidth", '<', 0.5); - Added a generalized Filter parser for more difficult filter rules MF filter("MHillas.fWidth<0.5 && MHillas.fLength>0.5"); - Added new Monte Carlo histograms: MHMcEnergyImpact and MHMcEfficiency - Added many new histograms needed for the flux calculation. - Added a generalized histograms which can fill and show up to three data members in either a one-, two- or three-dimensional histogram, eg: MH3 mh3("MHillas.fWidth", "MHillas.fLength"); - Added: * calculation of as a function of Theta (MHThetabarTheta) * calculation of as a function of time (MHThetabarTime) they are needed in the flux calculation in order to select for a given bin in Theta (or time) the appropriate effective collection area, which is assumed to be given as a function of Theta and the true energy - Added calculation of the migration matrix in the energy (MHMcEnergyMigration): the migration matrix describes the migration from the true (E_true) to the estimated energy (E_est); it is needed to determine the distribution of E_true from the measured distribution of E_est by unfolding - changed the color palette in the camera display to DeapSea. *** Version 0.6 (2002/01/15) - Introduce the option of disable pixels (MBlindPixels and MBlindPixelCalc) for the analysis (eg MHillasCalc) to be able to deal with Star Field NSB. - Fixed a bug in the pedestals substraction - Introduced verbosity levels - Introduced a task (MReadMarsFile) which reads the RunHeader tree, too. - Fixed several bugs in MFTriggerLvl1 which caused to filter not to work correctly (thanks to Abelardo) - Introduced correct treatment of the diffuse Night Sky Background and NSB (MMcPedestalNSB) - Corrected treatment of the electronic noise (MMcPedestalCopy) - Introduced MMcRunHeaders which contains monte carlo run informations - Added a 'Print'-Task (MPrint) which calls the Print function of a parameter container for each event - Removed MHtml (was replaced by THtml of root 3.02) in dohtml.C - changes to be more efficient with root 3.02/06 - root 3.02/06 fixes: + the memory leak when reading MRawEvtData + loosing more time than necessary to update the progress bar - MWriteAsciiFile is now capable of writing more than one container in a line. For example: To be able to write Monte Carlo and Hillas values (energy and alpha) in one line. *** Version 0.5 (2001/11/06) - Added new GUI functionality (Analysis) - Added a camera display to be able to display events in the camera together with the calculated hillas ellipse - Added a 'Clone'-Task (MClone) which can clone a parameter container object at any state of the analysis, so that the output are several states - Fixed a bug in the collection area error calculation (Thanks to Ciro and Abelardo) - Fixed a bug which causes merpp to crash in some environments - Implemented auto enabling scheme for Branches to speed up reading a lot (see MReadTree and MTask) - Fixed a bug in the Histogram classes which caused histograms to be written to a file by MWriteRootFile without request - changed the object I/O from the old stylish root I/O to the new 'auto evolution scheme' This was done only for classes which are not yet used in Monte Carlo files, so that these files are still readable. - Added support for a progress bar in MEvtLoop and MReadTree (see the Analysis Window in Mars for an example) - Fixed a bug in the package creation which disturbed the conversion between a mars version unpacked from a tar file and the repository. - Changed the code to writer merpped (converted into root format) raw files, to get faster (around 10%) *** Version 0.4 (2001/09/20) - This release is made to compile on a root version >= 3.00 - Fixed a bug which causes MReadTree to read the first file only - Added a task to compute the trigger rate (MMcTriggerRateCalc) - Added a task to write a container to an Ascii file (MWriteAsciiFile) - Added a task to write several container to a root file (MWriteRootFile) - Added calculation of the Enegry Threshold (MMcThresholdCalc) - Added calculation of the collection area (MMcCollectionAreaCalc) - fixed some bugs in the Hillas calculation - added filters to be able to control the task execution dependent on a parameter (for example: the number of level 1 triggers in a MC-file) *** Version 0.3 (2001/04/23) - Many demo macros added - MCT1ReadAscii is now able to handle more than one file (s. ::AddFile) - Hillas Calculation added - Standard image cleaning available - MReadTree is now able to handle more than one file (Remark: of the same structure) - Now we are able to display events in a first version of the Camera event display. To do this we must run the macro "macros/readCT1.C" to read data from CT1. *** Version 0.2 (2001/01/24) - First Implementation of a Gui to read the raw data. Start the gui with the command mars. *** Version 0.1 (2000/12/20) - First official release 0.1 - Changes: + changed calling style of MRawPixelIterator from do...while to while-loop
