[REMI] Add notebook to reconstruct detector hits from raw data
Description
Living outside the repository for a few weeks now and using the user_notebook feature, I'd like to include it here now to review, git tracking and being more easily accessbile.
This notebook takes raw data taken with ADQ digitizers and:
- Automatically splits traces taken by train into pulses
- Digitizes detector signals into positions
- Groups signals belonging together back into detector hits
Mixed in are a couple of diagnostics plot.
The configuration machinery and interface to a binary-only library provided by the detector vendor (RoentDek) is contained in an external library provsionally called EXtra-remi found here. In order to not bloat the dependencies further, and given it's been tested with this specific environment, I'd prefer to keep using the venv in /gpfs/exfel/sw/software/exfel_environments/sqs-remi-preview for now. It probably boils down to threadpoolctl and said extra_remi compared to pycalibration's default one.
The notebook uses an external YAML configuration file next to the regular calibration_configuration, which contains a couple of detector parameter much closer to the experiment than usual. If such a file does not exist in the expected location, it is created. A future configuration should make this obsolete.
How Has This Been Tested?
Used extensively for all data taken in p2448 and p2535.
Types of changes
- New feature (non-breaking change which adds functionality)
Checklist:
- My code follows the code style of this project. Certainly not!
Reviewers
It's not urgent to get this in, there won't be any further REMI experiment until the end of the year.
