How do I run merit on the output Root ntuple ?
The merit package came with your pdrApp distribution. This program is designed to read in an input Root ntuple and perform a series of standard cuts to the data – producing some nicely formatted output, describing the result of cuts, the event that pass the trigger criteria, and the resulting PSF and effective area. To run merit, do the following: Windows/VCMT: Select “merit” in the VCMT package window. Select “meritapp” in the Project drop down list. In the parameters text box input something like: -1rb pdr.root Here the string -1rb means to apply the level 1 trigger filter, the resolution cuts and the Ritz background rejection cuts.
