• TruthObjects: in this class the vectors of 4-vectors of the selected objects are filled. It contains a separate function for each object type, as well as functions to calculate the sumEt and MET and a function that finds whether a jet fakes another object and returns the new jet and bjet vectors.
• TruthSelectBBTT: this class applies all the event requirements for the bbtautau channel using the selected object collections.

• TruthTools: in this class a set of more general functions is defined, for example a function that calculates the dR separation between two 4-vectors or a function that calculates the mass of the tautau system based on the collinear approximation.
• TruthHistograms: this class is used to create and initialise histograms.

Introduction

Analysis Code

The HiggsSelfCouplings package contains classes to build objects, to apply selection cuts and to implement the smearing, efficiency and fake-rate functions defined in the TruthToRecoFunctions package to parameterise the detector performance under HL-LHC conditions.

You can browse the code in:

WebSVN: https://svnweb.cern.ch/cern/wsvn/atlas-cbarrera

or in:

Trac: https://svnweb.cern.ch/trac/atlas-cbarrera/browser

Instructions

To help setting-up athena, add the following line to your .bashrc file:

alias asetup17 = 'source /data/atlas09/ferrando/atlas_soft/17.2.2/AtlasSetup/scripts/asetup.sh 17.2.2.2' 

Now exit the terminal and open a fresh window.

First you need to get the code from SVN:

export SVNUSR=svn+ssh://<cern_username>@svn.cern.ch/reps/atlas-cbarrera
svn co $SVNUSR/HiggsSelfCouplings/trunk HiggsSelfCouplings

The first time you use the package you need to run the script called setup_firsttime.sh, which sets up athena and updates the files inside RootCore so that they point to the correct directories:

cd HiggsSelfCouplings
source setup_firsttime.sh

This you need to do only once. Everytime you want to run the code, you just need to setup athena and RootCore by doing:

cd HiggsSelfCouplings
asetup17
source packages/RootCore/scripts/setup.sh

To compile the code, just do:

make

This creates an executable file which you can run as:

./mainHHAnalysis

The HiggsSelfCouplings package

Here you can find a brief description of what each class in the HiggsSelfCouplings package currently does.

• TruthAlgo: base class to initialise the configuration, tools and physics objects; the latter contains the information from the D3PD.
• TruthConfiguration: in this class all configurable variables are defined, such as cuts, whether or not to apply the smearing/efficiency functions, etc. It contains functions that test whether an object satisfies the quality requirements. Finally, it also dumps a table with the values of all the parameters when running the code.
