Raw electron-positron collision event data from the JADE detector (DESY-PETRA)
JADE collaboration
Dataset Collision E+e- physics JADE 12GeV e+e- DESY-PETRA
Description
All data from the JADE detector at the PETRA accelerator taken from 1979 to 1986 with e+e- collision energies ranging from 12 to 46.7 GeV. JADE was one of the detectors responsible for the discovery of the gluon.
This data was recovered in recent years as it had to be moved due to space problems and was migrated multiple times over the years as more compact data storage devices became available.

Dataset characteristics
2862 files. 578.1 GiB in total.How were these data selected?
The events from the e+e- collisions were filtered by three trigger levels. The first relied on analog signals from scintillators and lead glass counters and filtered based on energy sums. The second level relied on the tracking chamber only accepted certain paths, while the third level was based on signals from the muon system.
