Number of raw strips (estimation) before and after pedestal&noise substraction

Estimation of the number of strips fired (before and after pedestal&noise substraction) in Simulation

List of prompt-gamma papers

Energy in preshower-1 vs gamma candidate position

 

Compare conversion and chi^2 methods for extracting yields

Abstract:  We compare yields extracted using the EEmc Gammas via conversion method, systematics II with estimates based on a chi^2/ndf analysis of the SMD response. 

Gamma tree production

Reproduce gamma trees for comparison between gamma yields from data and from pythia.

Measurement of componants (independantly)

Revised pythia estimates

Abstract: I have Comparison with Cross Sections (Pythia estimates, prompt photon yields) shown projections for single photon yields in the pp2006 data which were flawed.  They overestimated the luminosity for a fixed sample size by a factor of ~3.  The problem was due to misinterpreting the definition of "tried" and "accepted" events in pythia 8.1.  New projections are presented for a cross check with yields extracted from data.

Yield estimates based on single-particle MC sample, and comparison w/ pythia.

Abstract:  Based on EEmc Gammas via conversion method, retool from previous attempt at extracting yields, we generate a new MC sample.
