Expected Data Volume

Event Size Estimates

Measurement categories are based on slide 9 in DocDB 9993. Estimated events sizes are based on Monte Carlo simulations run previously for the 10kt version of the Far Detector, and are only meant to be precise within an order of magnitude. However, simple channel count and ADC digitization rate considerations do confirm that this is the right scale for the data produced per event (with zero suppression). Based on a MC data point for electrons (including showers) and experience in uBooNE, we can also conclude that the event sizes for single tracks and showers of comparable total energy (contained in the detector) would not be widely different.

Particle Type Momentum Range (GeV/c) Bin (MeV/c) Approx. event size (MB)


p 0.1-2.0 100 1
p 2.0-10.0 200 5
mu+- 0.1-1.0 50 1
mu+- 1.0-10.0 200 5
e+- 0.1-2.0 100 1
e+- 2.0-10.0 200 4
K+ 0.1-1.0 100 1


gamma (pi0) 0.1-2.0 100 1
gamma (pi0) 2.0-5.0 200 5

Statistics

In terms of detector characterization, some of the important parameters include energy scale and resolution for both single tracks and showers - hadronic and EM.
