Monitoring ATLAS Muon-to-Central-Trigger Interface and P-BEAST data

The ATLAS Level-1 Central Trigger Processor is responsible for forming the Level-1 trigger decisions, based on the information from the combination of ATLAS' calorimeters and muon detectors along with forward detectors. The trigger decision dictates whether to accept an event based on a list of selection criteria (trigger items). Resistive Plate Chambers residing along the barrel of ATLAS, and Thin-Gap Chambers, small-strip Thin-Gap Chambers and MicroMegas in the end-caps are responsible for the detection of muons. The signals produced by the detection of muons then leads to the Muon-to-Central-Trigger-Processor Interface (MuCTPI). For my project, I was tasked with developing a software application that extracts data recorded by MuCTPI and then generate useful histograms. The histograms were then to be published in an interactive and informative web page along with any accompanying data. In addition, the scripts for P-BEAST were also updated to correctly display Lumi Block (LB) data on the web monitoring page.
