Hello, I am trying to read some "final"/reconstructed LCIO or ROOT files in order to understand how to proceed with my task. For the beginning I took few files mentioned at: https://confluence.slac.stanford.edu/display/hpsg/Finding+Monte+Carlo+data+at+SLAC e.g. this one: ap2.2gev075mev_001_SLIC-v2r11p1_geant4-v9r3p2_QGSP_BERT_HPS-Proposal2014-v3-2pt2_readout_recon.slcio (the corresponding ROOT files do not load with the last LCIO library saying: "The StreamerInfo of class HpsEvent read from file has the same version (=1) as the active class but a different checksum. You should update the version to ClassDef(HpsEvent,2). Do not try to write objects with the current class definition, the files will not be readable.") I converted the working file into ROOT DST by means of the "dst_maker". By the way most of the other files available on that page, e.g.: ap075mev_egs_tri_2.2gev_0.00125x0_200na_5e5b_30mr_001_SLIC-v2r11p1_geant4-v9r3p2_QGSP_BERT_HPS-Proposal2014-v3-2pt2_readout_recon.slcio egs_tri_2.2gev_0.00125x0_200na_5e5b_30mr_001_SLIC-v2r11p1_geant4-v9r3p2_QGSP_BERT_HPS-Proposal2014-v3-2pt2_readout_recon.slcio do not convert, causing a segmentation fault of "dst_maker". Now, I tried to look into the obtained ROOT file, there are some tracks and EC hits, but there are no "_particles" (except for, I guess, input mc_particles). Am I missing something or using obsolete "examples" of MC data? Or the construction of reconstructed particles does not work yet? Another question, on the page: https://confluence.slac.stanford.edu/display/hpsg/HPS+Data+Summary+Tapes you provided a list of DST variables, however if one could spend a few minutes explaining what are for example: tracks: d0, phi, omega, tan_lambda, z0, svt_hits: covariance matrix cxy,czz..., mc_particles: endpoint, gbl_tracks: kappa, theta, phi, d0, z0, seed_kappa, seed_theta, seed_phi, seed_d0, seed_z0, chi^2, ndf, momentum, covariance it would be much more helpful.
