Split

The filter is expected to run on the following split:

  • InIceSplit

triggers: DeepCore

The filter is expected to run on the following trigger:

  • DeepCoreTrigger

Inputs

The filter requires the following inputs:

  • “InIceDSTPulses”

  • “SplitInIcePulses”

  • “SplitRTCleanedInIcePulses”

“OnlineDeepCoreFilter_24” is used if it is present, otherwise it is added to the frame

Reconstructions

No reconstructions are used in this filter

Objects added

The following objects are expected to be added to the frame:

  • “OnlineDeepCoreFilter_24” (if not yet present in frame or OnlineFilterMask)

  • “SplitRTCleanedInIcePulses” : if “OnlineDeepCoreFilter_24” has passed and “SplitRTCleanedInIcePulses” does not yet exist, an I3SeededRTCleaning_RecoPulseMask of SplitinIcePulses

  • “ELOWEN_Filter_24”: if “OnlineDeepCoreFilter_24” has passed, an I3Bool signifying the ELOWEN selection has passed

Filter rate

The expected filter rate is 25 mHz, this rate is dominated by detector noise. The filter result is contained within the I3Bool: “ELOWEN_Filter_24” if “OnlineDeepCoreFilter_24” passed.

Physics targets

This filter is specialised for 0.5-10 GeV,for all neutrino flavors. It can observe neutrinos from 0.5-100 GeV. The selection is used for astrophysical transient searches.
