ZDC: Updates to RPD Analysis

Mason Ray Housenga requested to merge mhouseng/athena:23.0-rpd-pileup-update into 23.0

Major updates to RPD analysis for ZDC.

This merge request changes the output of ZDC reconstruction since it implements new pileup detection and subtraction as well as a new control flow for the RPD analysis.

Changes to ZdcAnalysis:

  • Clean up and organize RPD analysis and centroid calculation code
  • Improve pileup detection and subtraction for RPD
  • Implement pulse detection for RPD
  • Replace TMatrix/TVector normal equation calculation with TLinearFitter in RPD pileup fits for better readability
  • Implement reconstruction calibration factors for RPD as ZDCAnalysisTool job property
  • Replace status bits and bitwise operations with std::bitset for better readability in RPD analysis and centroid calculation
  • Move RPDSubtractCentroidTool job property initialization to in-class
  • Add option to use max ADC or uncalibrated max/sum ADC as mass in centroid center of mass calculation
  • New definition of RPD reaction plane angle

Changes to ZdcMonitoring:

  • Update AOD read handle keys for new reconstruction
  • Add new status bits to RPD/centroid status bit plots
  • Add validity cuts on RPD plots where applicable

Changes to ZdcNtuple:

  • Update aux decor names for new reconstruction
  • Add new reconstruction output to NTuple

Changes to ZdcConditions:

  • Replace ZDC/RPD geometry placeholder values with those calculated from alignment data
