Location

The meson structure data is available from the following locations:

LATEST PROCESSED FILES
(last update of Jone 2025)

On JLab ifarm:

/volatile/eic/romanov/meson-structure-2025-06/reco

CSV-s are available via link (ask for the link)

On XRootD (open for universities and public)

bash
xrdfs root://dtn-eic.jlab.org
ls /volatile/eic/romanov/meson-structure-2025-06/reco

Writing libraries versions (important for C++ readout compatibility):

  • podio: v01-02
  • edm4hep: v00-99-01
  • edm4eic: v8.2.0

Original MCEG files on ifarm:
/work/eic/users/singhav/JLEIC/USERS/trottar/OUTPUTS/raty_eic/
(last update of October 2024)

File names:

File names are:

bash
# The pattern:
k_lambda_{beam}_5000evt_{idx}.{ext}

# e.g.
k_lambda_10x100_5000evt_045.edm4eic.root

Where:

  • {beam} Beam energy configuration [5x41, 10x100, 18x275]
  • {idx} - zero padded index [001-200]
  • {ext}
    • *.info.yaml - Input and processing metadata
    • *.afterburner.hepmc - Beam effects afterburner output
    • *.afterburner.hist.root - Afterburner before-after histograms
    • *.edm4hep.root - DD4Hep (Genat4) output
    • *.edm4eic.root - EICRecon reconstructed files
    • *.mcdis.csv - MC DIS CSV table
    • *.mcpart_lambda.csv - MCParticles based CSV table full lambda decay values

5000evt indicate each file has 5k events

Accessing Data with XRootD

The data is available remoutly through XRootD via:

root://dtn-eic.jlab.org

To browse the available files one can use xrdfs command:

bash
xrdfs root://dtn-eic.jlab.org
ls /volatile/eic/romanov/meson-structure-2025-06/reco

To download files:

bash
xrdcp root://dtn-eic.jlab.org//volatile/eic/romanov/meson-structure-2025-06/reco/k_lambda_5x41_5000evt_200.edm4eic.root ./

To use directly in scripts:

python
# Both uproot and pyroot can work with links directly 
# if XRootD is installed in the system
import uproot
file = uproot.open("root://dtn-eic.jlab.org//volatile/eic/romanov/meson-structure-2025-06/reco/k_lambda_5x41_5000evt_200.edm4eic.root")
