Purpose

approved PRs

New features

larsim PR 14
- Have done some major refactoring of the code inside LegacyLArG4/OpFastScintillation.
- Testing on a sbndgpvm on Cosmics + Neutrino events; the most cpu and memory hungry of events, I have achieved close to half of running time and a comparable memory footprint.
- Despite using some fast approximations to the most used functions there is no measurable bias in the OpHits.
- Along the way I have also address some of the underlying potential bugs that were hidden in the code. The most salient one had to with a domain error exception calling the boost elliptic integral functions, as far as I can tell this would happen due to a floating point error bloating.
larrecodnn PR 6
- Add option to find ROIs using rawdigits as input
larreco PR 13
- HitFinder module converted to Shared module, the implementations of tools and algorithms used in this module are thread safe.
larg4 PR 10
- Fhicl parameter to enable/disable MCParticle trajectory storage by MCTruth process name (follow up of PR#9)

Bug fixes

larcorealg PR 5
- Removed superfluous indirection step in some GeometryCore methods.

Updated dependencies

nutools v3_06_05
- table file cleanup
geant4reweight v01_02_00
- Implemented elastic reweighting in MultiReweighter
