<p>Hey everyone,</p>
<p>This could be a major cause of the discrepancy in relative trident yields in MC.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>The way I've been reading out the pure MC components is 100 generated files -> 1 recon file, but it seems that this was too many events for the readout step to handle, and it only processes a certain number of files before stopping. However, the jobs never
report an error and complete fine while using <100 files. This will greatly affect the number of events used for normalization.</p>

<p>If looking at Pass2 MC (tagged '3.4.0'), then the number of generated files each recon file corresponds to is:</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>BH: 1 recon file = 63-100 generated files (depending on whether the fieldmap was applied)</p>
<p>RAD: 1 recon file = 16-30 generated files</p>
<p>tritrig: 1 recon file = 10 generated files</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>This can be easily fixed by standardizing the readout of everything without background to 10-to-1, which I will start doing in the pass3 folder, and that number of files can then be assumed.</p>
<p>In the meantime, the number of input files and events used for pass2 MC readout can be found listed in the corresponding logs and your calculations adjusted accordingly:</p>

<p>I am very sorry for not catching this sooner.<br>
