3
4
5 - Fix bug on the arrival time reconstruction when using Digital
6 Filter (in some marginal cases (10%) times were reconstructed shifted
7 by 0.2 slices)
8
9 - all executables now return 2 where in previous versions -1 has
10 been returned (gave problems with shell-scripts)
11
12 - the Hi-/Lo-Gain intercalibration for monte carlo files is now
13 also done with a intercalibration input file
14
15 - a bug in the time fine adjustment of the digital filter has been fixed
16
17 - a lot of small fixes to calling TPad::Divide with a margin==0
18
19 - MStatusDisplay now shows the memory usage
20
21 - added a memory leak statistic after the eventloop
22
23 - MHadronness replaced by MParameterD
24
25 - wobble mode can now be switched on from the data-set
26
27 - switched on bad pixel detection for a pedestal level
28 which is more than 5 times the variance
29
30 - Fixed default paths to be correct for the new data center
31
32 - Fixed handling of drive data. The pointing position in now
33 copied to MPointingPos inside star for real and MC events
34
35 - made sure, that the sequences in a dataset are sorted by
36 their number to ensure the correct synchronization
37
38 - added all resource files necessary to handle spline extraction
39 of signal for the late 2004 and the early 2005 data
40
41 - update the reference lines for the december data
42

45 pulse position changes much.
46
47 - changed default for fgOffsetFromLogain from -1.8 to -2.8 in digital
48 filter. This corrects only an defective extraction of the MC at low-gain
49 signals lower than 90 phes.
50
51 - fixed some slowdown in calibrating data with interleaved events from
52 Jan and Dec.
53
54 - implemented new values from new starguider report as defined

107 - implemented filters to callisto to skip calibration events
108
109 - changed callisto to calculate three kinds of pedestals and pedestal rms:
110 + fundamental pedestal (MPedPhotFundamental): extracted directly from
111 the slices by statistics
112 + pedestal from extractor (MPedPhotFromExtractor): extracted with the
113 signal extractor without randomization
114 + random pedestal from extractor (MPedPhotFromExtractorRndm): extracted
115 with the signal extractor with randomization (extraction window is
116 randomly fixed)
117 The three kind of pedestal is not yet implemented (for speed reasons) as
118 long as nobody really needs it:
119 + pedestal from extractor with randomizatiuon (MPedPhotFromExtractorRndm):
120 extracted with the signal extractor with randomization
121
122 - callisto now finds the pulse position in the data automatically

145 MCerPhotEvt/Pix, MArrivalTime --> MSignalCam/Pix
146 * the new implementation is faster and
147 * needs less storage space
148
149 - FIRST version which can process Monte Carlos through the
150 whole chain of programs (callisto, star, etc)
151

597 MHillasExt are now scaled with the pixel size, so that one get
598 a four times smaller value for the bigger pixels in the outer ring.
599
600 - added new task to smooth the camera contents (MCameraSmooth)
601
602 - added possibility to use interpolated pixel values for blind pixels
603 instead of removing it completely from the analysis
604
605 - Implemented the possibility to save the whole eventloop with
606 its setup to a file. This information can be read and from
607 it you can (re)create a Macro. See MEvtLoop::Read, MEvtLoop::Write
608 and MEvtLoop::MakeMacro. If you find something not working, please
609 report - this stuff is still in a beta phase.
610
611 - MBlindPixelCalc set all Ceta-Tauri pixels to unused not only for the
612 file having crab starfield, but also for all following files - fixed
613
614 - MTaskList::PrintStatistics can now be instructud to print also the
615 title, too: use PrintStatistics(0, kTRUE)
616
617 - Changed the image cleaning so that pixels with to many 'used'
618 neighbors are left used (to get rid of 'holes' in events)
619
620 - Introduced more output to the camera displays
621
622 - Added an array of histograms (eg one hist per run), MHArray
623
624 - Added a _preliminary_ version of the reader for CT1 PreProc files
625 (MCT1ReadPreProc)
626
627 - Fixed the error calculation of MHMCollectionArea and MHMcIntRate
628 (thanks to Raquel)
629
630 - added the first energy estimator (MEnergyEstParam, estimate.C,
631 estfit.C) using a parametrization
632
633 - Added some new Monte Carlo paremeter containers used to store
634 setup information from the MC chain (MMcConfigRunHeader,
635 MMcCorsikaRunHeader, MGeomPMT, MGeomMirror)
636
637
638
639 *** Version 0.7 (2002/04/30)
640
641 - added a bugfix to MCerPhotCalc. In older camera versions (<=40)
642 the pedestal mean value was saved incorrectly. For files from
643 this versions we substract 0.5 from the pedestal mean.
644 WARNING: This may effect your results, so don't wonder...
645
646 - First implementation of an algorithm using only triggered events
647 for the collection area calculation
648
649 - Ascii Output can now also be used for parameter containers which
650 doesn't overload MParCointainer::AsciiWrite
651
652 - The Ascii Output is now also capable of writing single data members
653 of one container
654
655 - You are now able to change the order of the values written to the
656 ascii file
657
658 - You can now specify a conversion factor for each data member written
659 to an ascii file. This may be usefull to change the units of the
660 data member (eg. degrees instead of millimeters in case of the
661 hillas parameters)
662
663 - Replaced old MHillas by a new structure which allows you to extend
664 the parameters stored in MHillas very easily:
665 see MHillas and MHillasExt
666
667 - Added classes to handle source dependancy of image parameters:
668 see MHillasSrc
669
670 - Added container (MBinning) to have a standard input for the binning
671 in different histograms (eg. the Energy bins should be the same in
672 all histograms)
673
674 - Changed Hillas histograms from mm to deg
675
676 - Added the flexible binning to the hillas histograms
677
678 - Added a filter for the alpha parameter (MFAlpha)
679
680 - It is now possible to write single data members of a class object to
681 an output stream instead of the whole container only
682
683 - Added a generalized filter for a data member:
684 MFDataMember filter("MHillas.fWidth", '<', 0.5);
685
686 - Added a generalized Filter parser for more difficult filter rules
687 MF filter("MHillas.fWidth<0.5 && MHillas.fLength>0.5");
688
689 - Added new Monte Carlo histograms:
690 MHMcEnergyImpact and MHMcEfficiency
691
692 - Added many new histograms needed for the flux calculation.
693
694 - Added a generalized histograms which can fill and show up to three
695 data members in either a one-, two- or three-dimensional histogram, eg:
696 MH3 mh3("MHillas.fWidth", "MHillas.fLength");
697
698 - Added:
699 * calculation of <Theta> as a function of Theta (MHThetabarTheta)
700 * calculation of <Theta> as a function of time (MHThetabarTime)
701 they are needed in the flux calculation in
702 order to select for a given bin in Theta (or time) the appropriate
703 effective collection area, which is assumed to be given as a function
704 of Theta and the true energy
705
706 - Added calculation of the migration matrix in the energy
707 (MHMcEnergyMigration):
708 the migration matrix describes the migration from the true (E_true)
709 to the estimated energy (E_est); it is needed to determine the
710 distribution of E_true from the measured distribution of E_est
711 by unfolding
712
713 - changed the color palette in the camera display to DeapSea.
714
715

740 of a parameter container for each event
741
742 - Removed MHtml (was replaced by THtml of root 3.02) in dohtml.C
743
744 - changes to be more efficient with root 3.02/06
745
746 - root 3.02/06 fixes:
747 + the memory leak when reading MRawEvtData
748 + loosing more time than necessary to update the progress bar
749
750 - MWriteAsciiFile is now capable of writing more than one container
751 in a line. For example: To be able to write Monte Carlo and
752 Hillas values (energy and alpha) in one line.
753

776 be written to a file by MWriteRootFile without request
777
778 - changed the object I/O from the old stylish root I/O to the new
779 'auto evolution scheme' This was done only for classes which are not
780 yet used in Monte Carlo files, so that these files are still readable.
781
782 - Added support for a progress bar in MEvtLoop and MReadTree
783 (see the Analysis Window in Mars for an example)
784
785 - Fixed a bug in the package creation which disturbed the conversion
786 between a mars version unpacked from a tar file and the repository.
787
