Eventdisplay Analysis Scripts for VERITAS - version v490.2

Eventdisplay is a reconstruction and analysis pipeline for data of the VERITAS Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes (IACT). Eventdisplay analysis scripts for VERITAS developed for efficient analysis of many data runs and production of instrument response functions using EventDisplay_v4 for the reconstruction and analysis.

This is a minor release with bug fixes and improvements related to archival processing of a large number of observation runs and processing of runs using the optimised next-neighbour cleaning.

Changes:

• now download script to get pre-processed data from DESY: ARCHIVE.prepare_download_from_DESY.sh
• updated directory structure for processing to take AP and NN cleaning into account
• add supersoft cuts into scripts used in NN cleaning
• improved scripts for preprocessing and db access
• removal of run-wise radial acceptance code in anasum scripts (should not be used)
• scripts/ANALYSIS.mscw_energy.sh with changed command line sequence (!!) - first mscw output directory and then optional input directory (easier for typing when having the evndisp files in a default place)
• add scripts to handle very old V4 laser files read from a scripts/db_scripts/laser_runs

The usage of Eventdisplay requires code, scripts, and analysis files. For this release, the corresponding repositories are:

• Eventdisplay v490.2
• Eventdisplay_AnalysisScripts_VTS v490.2
• Eventdisplay_AnalysisFiles_VTS v490.2 (private repository)

For details on how to install the release, see this readme.
