Physics Analysis Expert PAX: First Applications
M. Erdmann, D. Hirschbuehl, C. Jung +11
PAX (Physics Analysis Expert) is a novel, C++ based toolkit designed to assist teams in particle physics data analysis issues. The core of PAX are event interpretation containers,…
X-ray Timing Analysis of Six Pulsars Using ESA's XMM-Newton Observatory
A. Martin-Carrillo, M. Kirsch, E. Kendziorra +1
We present results of a timing analysis of various isolated pulsars using ESA's \emph{XMM-Newton} observatory. Isolated pulsars are useful for calibration purposes because of their…
Concepts, Developments and Advanced Applications of the PAX Toolkit
S. Kappler, M. Erdmann, U. Felzmann +7
The Physics Analysis eXpert (PAX) is an open source toolkit for high energy physics analysis. The C++ class collection provided by PAX is deployed in a number of analyses with comp…
Visual Physics Analysis (VISPA) - Concepts and First Applications
O. Actis, M. Erdmann, R. Fischer +6
VISPA is a novel development environment for high energy physics analyses, based on a combination of graphical and textual steering. The primary aim of VISPA is to support physicis…
Automated Reconstruction of Particle Cascades in High Energy Physics Experiments
O. Actis, M. Erdmann, A. Henrichs +4
We present a procedure for reconstructing particle cascades from event data measured in a high energy physics experiment. For evaluating the hypothesis of a specific physics proces…
The first broad-band X-ray images and spectra of the 30 Doradus region in the LMC
K. Dennerl, F. Haberl, B. Aschenbach +25
We present the XMM-Newton first light image, taken in January 2000 with the EPIC pn camera during the instrument's commissioning phase, when XMM-Newton was pointing towards the Lar…
