Minutes:
1) UCLA/Yifei B->e analysis and needs
We discussed the merging of the two efforts and action
items in order to bring it to a CD1/CDR level.
(page # refer to Yifei's 5/22 report)
a) Inclusion of TOF and realistic e/pi-PID (page-3)
b) Photonic, Dalitz, 'PID' etc background re-evaluation
based on STAR experience/estimates. (page-5)
c) Estimate impact of EMC-HT trigger on stats/errors
(page-7)
d) Clarify/simplify plots in page-9
2) Production schedule
a) Yifei finished the production of 10K Hijing+B+j/Psi
for Wei's work.
b) He is also done with the low-pt D0s production
Nothing else is pending for now.
3) Analysis of current data sets, eg L_c in UPGR15
a) From the data sample in 2b we need an efficiency
and S/N plot (Yifei?)
b) For CDR we need updates of figures 4,5,6 in
'physics motivation'. Jan/Jonathan to work something
out.
4) CDR 'Physics Motivation' chapter update
I will act as the editor of this (from simulation point
of view) with input from analyses leaders.
5) H. Wieman asked for input concerning low-er pt electrons
spiraling (thus leaving hits) in Pixel layers. This
coupled to cluster shapes will give more accurate
pixel occupancy rates. Jim Thomas to be contacted to
resurect UPC rates/pt shapes etc...things that lead to
pileup estimates and see if new GEANT calculations are
needed to obtain realistic stopping via energy straggling.
Howard's estimate is in the following link (IE or Safari only)
