Action Items

Immediate action items:

•  Y2008 tag
  • find out about the status of the FTPC (can't locate the relevant e-mail now)
  • find out about the status of PMD in 2008 (open/closed)
  • ask Akio about possible updates of the FMS code, get the final version
  • based on Dave's records, add a small amount of material to the beampipe
  • review the tech drawings from Bill and Will and others and start coding the support structure
  • extract information from TOF people about the likely configuration
  • when ready, produce the material profile plots for Y2008 in slices in Z
• TUP tags
  • work with Jim Thomas, Gerrit and primarily Spiros on the definition of geometry for the next TUP wave
  • coordinate with Spiros, Jim and Yuri a possible repass of the trecent TUP MC data without the IST
• Older tags
  • check the more recent correction to the SVT code (carbon instead of Be used in the water channels)
  • provide code for the correction for 3 layers of mylar on the beampipe as referred to above in Y2008
  • check with Dave about the dimensions of the water channels (likely incorrect in GEANT)
  • determine which years we will choose to retrofit with improved SVT (ask STAR members)
• MTD
  • Establish a new UPGRXX tag for the MTD simulation
  • supervise and help Lijuan in extending the filed map
  • provide facility for reading a separate map in starsim and root4star (with Yuri)
• Misc
  • collect feedback on possible simulation plans for the fall'07
  • revisit the codes for event pre-selection ("hooks")
  • revisit the event mixing scripts
• Development
  • create a schema to store MC run catalog data with a view to automate job definition (Michael has promised help)
