Event browser for Xtc files

Xtc is the online data format. For a faster look at the data, we need a quick tool to make simple analysis plots from the xtc data.

Xtc file reader: xtcsummary.py

Text output listing the contents of an xtc file.

Analysis with pyana

Pyana is already a complete tool for analyzing xtc files. The user needs to write some code in python to load the data of interest. (We should provide more examples). Matplotlib is suitable for plotting in the pyana framework.

Plotting with MatPlotLib. A comparison with MatLab.

         a1 = subplot(121);
        loglog(channels(:,1),channels(:,2),'o')
        xlabel('CH0')
        ylabel('CH1')
        a2 = subplot(122);
        loglog(channels(:,3),channels(:,4),'o')
        xlabel('CH2')
        ylabel('CH3')

         a1 = plt.subplot(221)
        plt.loglog(channels[:,0],channels[:,1], 'or' )
        plt.xlabel('CH0')
        plt.ylabel('CH1')
        a2 = plt.subplot(222)
        plt.loglog(channels[:,2],channels[:,3], 'or' )
        plt.xlabel('CH2')
        plt.ylabel('CH3')
