Jetscape

class Jetscape.Jetscape(JETSCAPE_FILE: str, **kwargs: Dict[str, int | Tuple[int, int] | Dict[str, int | Tuple[int, int]]])[source]

Defines a Jetscape object.

The Jetscape class contains a single Jetscape hadron output file including all or only chosen events. It’s methods allow to directly act on all contained events as applying acceptance filters (e.g. un-/charged particles) to keep/remove particles by their PDG codes or to apply cuts (e.g. multiplicity, pseudo-/rapidity, pT). Once these filters are applied, the new data set can be saved 1) as a nested list containing all quantities of the Jetscape format 2) as a list containing Particle objects from the Particle or it can be printed to a file complying with the input format.

Note

If filters are applied, be aware that not all cuts commute.

Parameters:
JETSCAPE_FILEstr

Path to Jetscape file

Other Parameters:
**kwargsproperties, optional

kwargs are used to specify optional properties like a chunk reading and must be used like 'property'='value' where the possible properties are specified below.

Property

Description

events (int)

From the input Jetscape file load only a single event by
specifying events=i where i is event number i.

events (tuple)

From the input Jetscape file load only a range of events
given by the tuple (first_event, last_event)
by specifying events=(first_event, last_event)
where last_event is included.

filters (dict)

Apply filters on an event-by-event basis to directly filter the
particles after the read in of one event. This method saves
memory. The names of the filters are the same as the names of
the filter methods. All filters are applied in the order in
which they appear in the dictionary.

particletype (str)

This parameter allows to switch from the standard hadron file
to the parton output of JETSCAPE. The parameter can be set to
particletype='hadron' (default) or particletype='parton'. Quark charges are multiplied by 3 to make them integer values.

Notes

All filters with the keyword argument filters need the usual parameters for the filter functions in the dictionary. All filter functions without arguments need a True in the dictionary.

Examples

1. Initialization

To create a Jetscape object, the path to the Jetscape file has to be passed. By default the Jetscape object will contain all events of the input file. If the Jetscape object should only contain certain events, the keyword argument “events” must be used.

 1>>> from sparkx.Jetscape import Jetscape
 2>>>
 3>>> JETSCAPE_FILE_PATH = [Jetscape_directory]/particle_lists.dat
 4>>>
 5>>> # Jetscape object containing all events
 6>>> jetscape1 = Jetscape(JETSCAPE_FILE_PATH)
 7>>>
 8>>> # Jetscape object containing only the first event
 9>>> jetscape2 = Jetscape(JETSCAPE_FILE_PATH, events=0)
10>>>
11>>> # Jetscape object containing only events 2, 3, 4 and 5
12>>> jetscape3 = Jetscape(JETSCAPE_FILE_PATH, events=(2,5))

2. Method Usage

All methods that apply filters to the Jetscape data return self. This means that methods can be concatenated. To access the Jetscape data as list to store it into a variable, the method particle_list() or particle_objects_list must be called in the end. Let’s assume we only want to keep participant pions in events with a multiplicity > 500:

>>> jetscape = Jetscape(JETSCAPE_FILE_PATH)
>>>
>>> pions = jetscape.multiplicity_cut(500, None).participants().particle_species((211, -211, 111))
>>>
>>> # save the pions of all events as nested list
>>> pions_list = pions.particle_list()
>>>
>>> # save the pions as list of Particle objects
>>> pions_particle_objects = pions.particle_objects_list()
>>>
>>> # print the pions to an Jetscape file
>>> pions.print_particle_lists_to_file('./particle_lists.dat')

3. Constructor cuts

Cuts can be performed directly in the constructor by passing a dictionary. This has the advantage that memory is saved because the cuts are applied after reading each single event. This is achieved by the keyword argument filters, which contains the filter dictionary. Filters are applied in the order in which they appear. Let’s assume we only want to keep pions in events with a multiplicity > 500:

>>> jetscape = Jetscape(JETSCAPE_FILE_PATH, filters={'multiplicity_cut':(500,None), 'particle_species':(211, -211, 111)}})
>>>
>>> # print the pions to a jetscape file
>>> jetscape.print_particle_lists_to_file('./particle_lists.dat')
