Setup

In order to setup a python virtual environment with the corresponding dependencies, do the following:

  1. pip install virtualenv
  2. virtualenv myenv
  3. source myenv/bin/activate
  4. pip install -r requirements.txt

Afterwards you can use your virtual python environment in order to run the code. But before you do, you need to setup the properties.env. Inside of properties.env you will find different configuration variables which are used throughout the code in order to control the behavior of the code. Below you can find a table which summarizes what these environment variables do.

Environment Variable Use-Case
LOWER_COSTHETAK_CUT Controls the lower boundary of cos(theta_K)
UPPER_COSTHETAK_CUT Controls the upper boundary of cos(theta_K)
SYS_PATH We need one local package in order to make the code work, namely hep_analytics which you can also find in this repo, the interpreter needs to find that package, so set SYS_PATH to the relative path to hep_analytics
GEN_FILE Path to the Generator File
MC_FILE Path to the MC File
MC_PHSP_FILE Path to the PHSP MC File

If you want to see how to set the environment variables, have a look at properties.env. Also, I have run the code on the LHCbA1 machine but it should make no difference where you run the code. You are done!
