Run-11 Transverse Jets Test: Run 12059009 in Trigger Bins (part III)

Pibero suggested I add another line to my macro--

StJetSkimTrig* trig = skim->trigger(trigId);

if (trig && trig->didFire()) {

   // ...

}

--which seems to have fixed the issue of nearly every event firing the trigger. For the following histograms, I've implemented a series of cuts as suggested in the e-mail exchange

  • vertex rank > 0
  • |zvertex| < 90 cm
  • RT < 0.98

Also, in this blog I occasionally refer to the triggers with the following convention:

  1. JP0 (320600)
  2. JP1 (320601)
  3. JP2*L2JetHigh (320602)
  4. AJP (320603)
  5. BHT1 (320501)
  6. BHT2 (320503)
  7. BHT0*VPDMB (320504)
  8. BBCMB (320103)
  9. VPDMB (320001)

Number of Events in Trigger Indices

So, we see, as Renee has pointed out, the BHT triggers contain considerably more events than the other triggers. It remains to be seen if this translates into the most desireable event set.

High-tower Triggers

Min-bias Triggers

For reference's sake, I also post plots separately for each trigger ID.
