Request for two new DB tables for PXL/IST MC hit efficiency (tuned values) used for fast/slow simulators

We would like to request to create two new DB tables for storing PXL/IST simulator parameters, particularly for hit efficiencies that can be used both for fast and slow simulators. Following the instruction listed in this blog page

https://drupal.star.bnl.gov/STAR/comp/db/how-to-user/new-table/
We have the answers below

1) The table will be placed in the Calibration_pxl/Calibration_ist domain. It will used offline by the PXL/IST simulators through the StPxlDbMaker/StIstDbMaker to read in these parameters. The table will be filled usually once per year run.

2) The idl file can be found on RCF

/star/u/dongx/pwg/hft/Software/20180312/StDb/idl/pxlSimPar.idl

/star/u/dongx/pwg/hft/Software/20180312/StDb/idl/istSimPar.idl

3) non-indexed

 

4) return of sizeof(pxlSimPar_st) and sizeof(istSimPar_st) are 16 and 12.

5) Xin Dong - RCF login username: dongx
