Key Points

Introduction	Use `xrdcp` from within eic-shell to copy files to your local environment.
The Reconstruction Output Tree	Output trees contain a lot of information. Take time to explore what is available, identify what you want to try and do, find the relevant branches. The MCParticles branch holds information on generator level particles, critical for use in comparing to what we actually detect!
Analyzing the Reconstruction Output	Flat tree structure provides flexibility in analysis. The ReconstructedChargedParticles branch holds information on reconstructed tracks.
Full Chain Analysis	There are a few steps to go through before we get to the file we analysed previously. Good for testing, but use simulation campaign output where possible!.
Additional Resources	Starting scripts for the exercises are available. Completed (tm) exercise scripts will be available after the lesson. Talk to your colleagues in your WG if you don’t know where to get started. Check the Examples Repository too!
