  1. Skimming in Zztop Ricardo – SLT meeting

  2. Skimming in ZZtop • ZZtop updated to do skimming and slimming (only in my area now) • Uses Multiple Stream Manager (MSMgr) • Actually very easy – the basis was already done in ZZtopFilterBase – difficulty was knowing where to look • Need to: • Create a new MSMgr-derived output stream • Add list of algorithms which accept events into stream • Define stream content (which collections get written to stream) • Several ways to select events: • Define list of filter algorithms which can select events (OR) • Define list of filter algorithms which are required to select events (AND) • Define list of algorithms which can veto events (NOT) • Chose to implement the OR, but can be easly changed

  3. Slimming in ZZtop • Several ways to define output stream content: • Add each item (collectio/key) explicitely • Define list of collectio/key to exclude and add all other input collections • Use predefined list of items maintained in convenient functions from PrimaryDPDMaker package

  4. Skimming and slimming configuration • Done through 2 flags and a list in ZZtop_master_jobOptions.py • ZZtopFlags.DoSkimming = True/False • ZZtopFlags.SkimAcceptAlgs= [list of filter algs] • ZZtopFlags.DoSlimming= True/False • Details of e.g. output file content are hidden away in Zztop_master.py as usual – since they should not change often

  5. Some numbers • Pure skimming: • Running on 200 ttbar MC, and asking for 1 electron and 3 jets with pT > 35GeV we get 90 events • No skimming: 104MB (200 events) • Skimming: 53MB (90 events) • Skimming + Slimming: • Adding only basic physics objects to skimmed file: 2MB (90 events) • Adding basic physics + detailed performance & physics objects: 24MB (90 events)

  6. Problems & next steps • Problems: • Somehow adding trigger info to output file with PrimDPD functions doesn’t work • Tried (briefly) to run ZZtop on output file but it didn’t work “out of the box” • Next steps: • Tidy up code and check it in to SVN • Finalize contents of slimmed output file • Make sure we can run ZZtop on slimmed/skimmed dAOD • Run on data
