2005 Dijet Cross Section Preliminary Presentation

Attached is my preliminary presentation for the 2005 Dijet Cross Section to be shown on Thursday, September 10, 2009.

Comparing data etas to simulated etas

In the attached plots I'm comparing the etas I have found in different sectors in data to a single particle eta simulation in MC which has been put through the same analysis code.  I throw the

UPC analysis

This is my first attempt to use a blog. I attach a ppt file with a report on analysis of muDST from run07 UPC triggers

The BBC vernier scan calculation is really clean

I've found one of the problems in the code, and am now off by a (measly) two or so orders of magnitude.

W-Background Estimation based on Run 9 pp500 data

I'm using Jan's Algo ver 4.1 with a few modifications to look into the idea Scott suggested of sorting events by placing conditions on the away side to get an estimate of the background.  Here

vernier scan timing from Angelika

The following are the raw times Angelika gave me for the vernier scans, along with her verbatim description of the same (lifted from emails):
