Purpose

The R3BRoot software is based on the FairRoot framework and can be used to perform Monte Carlo simulations and experimental data analysis of the R3B (Reactions with Relativistic Radioactive Beams) nuclear physics experiments at the FAIR research center (Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research).

This repository contains all the parameters, ROOT geometries and input files needed by R3BRoot for the simulation and data analysis of the different experiments.

Download

git clone https://github.com/R3BRootGroup/R3BParams_workshop.git
cd R3BParams_workshop

Developers

First, fork the main repository of parameters from the GitHub account and then download it as follows

git clone https://github.com/user_name/R3BParams_workshop.git
cd R3BParams_workshop

Now when your origin points to your fork. You need to add the main repo to your remotes as well. You should have "origin --> you fork" and "mainrepo --> the main repo".

git remote add mainrepo git@github.com:R3BRootGroup/R3BParams_workshop.git
git fetch mainrepo

Sync your feature branch

As often as possible sync your feature branch with the central dev.

Sync:

    git fetch mainrepo
    git checkout feature_branch
    git rebase mainrepo/dev

• Resolve conflicts if any.

• Stage each modified file "git add <file_name>" after conflicts are resolved.

• You can also use "git checkout --theirs/--ours " to help to resolve conflicts.

• Use "git rebase --continue" to continue rebasing.

  Push to your remote clone:

    git push origin

Configuration

Before running your analysis macros, load the path to parameter files using the config.sh script:

source config.sh
