ICARUS NuMI samples for studies and physics analysis

NuMI samples for studies and physics analysis

This is meant to be a list of the samples that are used for NuMI physics analyses and studies. This kind of lists has the remarkable ability of falling out of date in days, so in case of doubt throw a line to SBN Slack channel #numi-nus.

There are two sections in this page:

  • the sample list includes the relevant samples, SAM definitions, file locations, processing information and known uses of the samples (which is going to be partial for sure)
  • the version list describes the details of the software used for those samples, with stress on what is different from earlier versions and from “standard” samples

The versions

The information in this list is incremental: features not mentioned in one version should be unchanged since the previous listed version.
