You can open the first root file and see the different ntuples:

[username@plus1 dnaphysics_build]$ root -l dna_t0.root

 +
root [1] new TBrowser
 +
 +
Select ROOT Files, dna_t0.root and Folder dna

Click on the different leafs

</pre>
You can analyze the root files using '''plot.C''' macro.

The macro produces a plot that shows the position of the two DNA strands shown in two different colors. The spheres represent the amino bases. Keep in mind that the plot shows only the DNA pairs with the deposited energy (see how the ntuples are defined in SteppingAction.cc).
