EVE-7 Event Display

EVE-7, officially known as REve, is an update of TEve, the popular ROOT-based event visualization framework. Design of EVE-7 was also informed by the HEP Software Foundation Community White Paper on Visualization. EVE-7 has been written with CMS in Run-3 and the ROOT-7 era in mind:

  • References: "EVE-7 and FireworksWeb: The next generation event visualization tools for ROOT and CMS" by Matevž Tadel et al.

Modernize the code with modern c++.

  • This will have new web server client implementation. Allowing remote access, making it useful for Online/data taking.
  • In additon, this alleviates the problem of the aging ROOT GUI infrastructure as Web-based technologies are platform independent by its own nature. Supports remote interactive graphics and visualization services


Proposal to use Eve-7 for Mu2e presented at last CM: Mu2e doc db 35612

Code Stucture

The Eve-7 Mu2e code is much simpler than the TEve version since many features are built-in so we don't have to build all the infrastructure ourselves. Therefore the number of files written and the overall file sizes is much smaller:

Demo

A simplistic demo was built in order to prototype the development level code. Users can test drive the demo here: https://github.com/sophiemiddleton/OnlineDevelopment

Using the Eve-7 Mu2e Display

The Eve-7 display is available on the Mu2e DAQ machines. I am in the process of transitioning the code to GitHub and the general purpose machine. We now have an REve repo. in the Mu2e GitHub organization.

Examples of the Eve-7 Mu2e Display

A CeEndpoint displayed in the Mu2e Eve-7 display. This display is currently under development and several features are still being adapted.

Remote Access

Users can log in to the Eve-7 display from anywhere in the world, provided they have a tunnel or FNAL VPN activated. I have added a Eve-7 tab to the OTSDAQ desktop to make this easier.
