Raw DataNewly acquired raw data is stored on disk and copies to institutional storage in a timely fashion.  This is done by copying the data to a UVA based server and then preserving thethe data on a RAID disk array owned and maintained by the UVA Spin Physics group.

...

It is the SpinQuest Collaboration’s policy that these raw data and processed MySQL data are available to collaboration members for use in collaboration-approved scientific studies and analyses. Completed analyses will be submitted for publication and shared with outside researchers. SpinQuest will maintain the ability to access these data indefinitely stored at UVA and as well as Fermilab maintaining a copy as it is archived automatically.

Processed Data: Processed data is initially stored on disk and migrated to institutional storage as required. The  The data will be regularly copied to a UVA owned server and then copied to a RAID disk array owned and maintained by the Spin Physics group.  The raw data from the SpinQuest detector are stored on disk, at a rate of about 0.05 TB/week, with information on the particles as they transverse the detector components as well as information on target polarization and target parameters. The processed data are also stored on disk for analysis by members of the SpinQuest research community to analyze. Processed data is in DST format  format which will be analyzed with a ROOT based reconstruction and analysis framework.
