Log into kingbee.mps.ohio-state.edu first, then log into radiorm.physics.ohio-state.edu.
From Keith Stewart 03/16/17: It appears that radiorm SSH from offsite is closed. So you will need to be on an OSU network physically
or via VPN. fox is also blocked from offsite as well. Kingbee should still be available for now. If you want to use it as a jump host to get to radiorm |

|
Okay, so our group has two "project" spaces on OSC (the Ohio Supercomputer). The first is for Amy's group, and is a project workspace called
"PAS0654". The second is the CCAPP Condo (literally, CCAPP has some pre-specified rental time, and hence "condo") on OSC, and this
is project PCON0003. |

|
So, ARA has five stations down in the ice that are taking data. Weekly, a member of the collaboration checks on the detectors to make sure that they
are healthy.
This means things like making sure they are triggering at approximately the right rates, are taking cal pulsers, that the box isn't too hot, |

PDF of advice by Andy Buckley (U Glasgow) on writing a HEP thesis (and presumably HEP papers too) that was forwarded by John Beacom to the
CCAPP mailing list a few months back. |

If an undergrad has been working with the group on a volunteer basis, they will need that clarified, so that they have not up to then we working for
pay without training. There is a form that they sign saying they have been working as a volunteer.
Below is an email that Pam sent in July 2019 outlining what they need. Other things to remember: |

Bought 951 Non-Resin Soldering Flux. This is the preferred variety. This could be found on this website https://www.kester.com/products/product/951-soldering-flux.
The amount of Flux that was bought was 1 Gallon (Lasts quite some time). The price was $83.86 with approximate shipping of $43. This was done |

|
If you are trying to use the Ray Trace Correlator with AraRoot, you will probably encounter some issues as you go. Here is some advice that Carl Pfendner
found, and Brian Clark compiled.
Please note that it is extremely important that your AntennaInfo.sqlite table in araROOT contain the ICRR versions of both Testbed |

Mon Nov 20 08:31:48 2017, Brian Clark and Oindree Banerjee, Fit a Function in ROOT, Analysis
|
Sometimes you need to fit a function to a histogram in ROOT. Attached is code for how to do that in the simple case of a power law fit.
To run the example, you should type "root fitSnr.C" in the command line. The code will access the source histogram (hstrip1nsr.root,
which is actually ANITA-2 satellite data). The result is stripe1snrfit.png. |

Tue Dec 12 17:38:36 2017, Brian Clark, Data Analysis in R from day w/ Brian Connolly, Analysis
|
On Nov 28 2017, Brian Connolly came and visited and taught us how to do basic data analysis in R.
He in particular showed us how to do a Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) and Principal Component Analysis (PCA).
Attached are three of the data files Carl Pfendner prepared for us to analyze (ARA data, including simulation, force triggers, and RF triggers). |

Quick C++ program for pulling waveforms out of deep ARA station data. If you are using AraRoot, you would put this inside your "analysis" directory
and add it to your CMakeLists.txt. |

Mon Oct 1 19:06:59 2018, Brian Clark, Code to Compute Effective Volumes in AraSim, Analysis

Here is some C++ code and an associated makefile to find effective volumes from AraSim output files.
It computes error bars on the effective volumes using the relevant AraSim function.
Compile like "make -f veff.mk" |

Attaching some scripts that help processing the effective volumes. This is an extension of what Brian Clark did in a previous post (http://radiorm.physics.ohio-state.edu/elog/How-To/27)
There are 4 files attached:
- veff_aeff2.C and veff_aeff2.mk. veff_aeff2.C produces Veff_des$1.txt ($1 can be A or B or C). This file contains the following |

|
Say you want to plot two TH2Ds with on the same pad but different color paletettes?
This is possible, but requires a touch of fancy ROOT-ing. Actually, it's not that much, it just takes a lot of time to figure it out. So
here it is. |

Mon Mar 4 14:11:07 2019, Jorge Torres, Submitting arrays of jobs on OSC, Analysis
|
PBS has the option of having arrays of jobs in case you want to easily submit multiple similar jobs. The only difference in them is the array
index, which you can use in your PBS script to run each task with a different set of input arguments, or any other operation that requires a unique index.
You need to add the following lines to your submitter file: |
