Straxen nT datastructure for high energy channels

This page is an autogenerated reference for all the plugins in straxen’s xenonnt_online context.

The figures presented are dependency diagrams, meaning that an arrow stemming from a node points to a node that the stem depends on (i.e. “A depends on B” is equivalent to “A —> B”).

Colors indicate data kinds. To load tables with different data kinds, you currently need more than one get_df (or get_array) commands.

peak_basics_he

Description

Provided by plugin: PeakBasicsHighEnergy

Data kind: peaks_he

High energy channels: attenuated signals of the top PMT-array Compute the basic peak-properties, thereby dropping structured arrays.

peaklets_he

Description

Provided by plugin: PeakletsHighEnergy

Data kind: peaklets_he

High energy channels: attenuated signals of the top PMT-array

Split records into:
  • peaklets

  • lone_hits

Peaklets are very aggressively split peaks such that we are able to find S1-S2s even if they are close to each other. (S2) Peaks that are split into too many peaklets will be merged later on.

To get Peaklets from records apply/do:
  1. Hit finding

  2. Peak finding

  3. Peak splitting using the natural breaks algorithm

  4. Compute the digital sum waveform

Lone hits are all hits which are outside of any peak. The area of lone_hits includes the left and right hit extension, except the extension overlaps with any peaks or other hits.

records_he

Description

Provided by plugin: PulseProcessingHighEnergy

Data kind: records_he

High energy channels: attenuated signals of the top PMT-array

Split raw_records into:
  • (tpc) records

  • aqmon_records

  • pulse_counts

For TPC records, apply basic processing:
  1. Flip, baseline, and integrate the waveform

  2. Apply software HE veto after high-energy peaks.

  3. Find hits, apply linear filter, and zero outside hits.

pulse_counts holds some average information for the individual PMT channels for each chunk of raw_records. This includes e.g. number of recorded pulses, lone_pulses (pulses which do not overlap with any other pulse), or mean values of baseline and baseline rms channel.
