Jakub Kvapil contributed to the sPHENIX-Collaboration/analysis repository by extending jet reconstruction workflows and refactoring data handling for high energy physics analysis. He enhanced FullJetFinder to support track-only jets, introducing a jet-type parameter and updating event processing logic to unify track and full jet workflows in C++. Later, Jakub refactored JetAnalysis to generate a dedicated ROOT file for matched jet data, restructured output branches to expose detailed jet constituent information, and refined vertex selection criteria. His work, focused on C++ development and the ROOT framework, improved maintainability and enabled more granular particle physics analysis without introducing unnecessary code complexity.

Summary for 2025-07: Delivered JetAnalysis Data Handling Refactor and Jet Constituents Enhancement in sPHENIX-Collaboration/analysis. Key improvements include a dedicated ROOT file to store matched jet data, a reconfigured branch structure exposing detailed jet constituent information, refined vertex selection criteria, and removal of commented-out code to streamline the analysis.

Month: 2025-01 Key features delivered: - Track Jets Support in FullJetFinder: Extended FullJetFinder to accept a jet type and added a new input type for track jets; updated event processing logic to handle track vs full jets. Major bugs fixed: - None reported this month. Overall impact and accomplishments: - Expanded jet-analysis capabilities to include track-only jets, enabling physics studies that rely on tracker information; reduces divergence between track-only and full-jet workflows; improves maintainability by unifying jet-processing path. Delivered through a targeted code change with a minimal surface area. Technologies/skills demonstrated: - C++/ROOT-based data processing, jet-finding workflow extension, API design for multi-type jets, Git version control (commit af8c7bd1c33b5703c7ee53e1f56749e92a866aba).
