Grant's pre-prospectus update

 Testing if I can add a blog post. Presentation I showed at the collaboration meeting.

pAu embedding vs. data multiplicity correlations

Before and after weighting the embedded events by event quantities, we compare embedding to data and also look at correlations between the observables to figure out why the weighting isn't helping to

Estimates for D* in p+p 200 and 500 GeV / e-/e+ ratio studies in Run12

Yield estimates for D* in 200 and 500 GeV datasets based of FONLL
Update on studies of e-/e+ ratio in run 12

Inspiration for p+Au analysis from old Hard Probes embedding/unfolding procedure

As we prepare to unfold the Run 15 p+Au data with the now bug-free official STAR PYTHIA dijet embedding into p+Au MB background, we look back to what approach was used for the unofficial "interna

Comparison of PYTHIA embedding to data for run15 p+Au \sqrt{s} = 200 GeV collisions

v0: Comparison for three jet radii of raw data to embedding differentially in jet rapidity, jet pT, jet mass, and event activity as determined by the inner BBCE detector, in order to test if the unfol

p+Au unfolding conceptual update

Some quick slides on the problems with unfolding of p+Au jet quantities with PYTHIA+pAuMinBias embedding, using a visual approach.

Jet mass in run12 pp 200 GeV: analysis update

Changes in v1:

  • Same-side closure has been added to the MC closure test on slide 23.
  • The refolding procedure was fixed (s. 24).
