Run9 W Presentation

partial barrel vernier scan and task list

 In the past I've shown plots showing a fairly large background in the BHT3 event rate, and at the last meeting I showed how clean and clear the vernier scan for the BBC was.

Quick Shower Shape Study

Below are a few quick studies showing the robustness of the Bayesian model comparison approach to shower shape analysis.

Adding ETOW to W-Algo

I included the Endcap towers in only the away side veto sum in Jan's W-algo ver4.2.2 (near side will come later).  Below are some plots before and after the changes.

Run9 500 GeV BTOW Relative Gains

The relative gains for the BTOW in the run9 500 GeV running were calculated using "Scott's Method" based on the slopes of the ADC spectra.

Ws at STAR Run 9 - algo ver 4.2

Last week  results of W-algo (ver 4.1) from Run 9 data have been presented to spin PWG. Since then one error has been fixed and W-algo was  improved.

BEMC Geometry Study

Run6 FPD Single Photon GSTAR

Using the geometry configuration y2006g, which apparently has the east FPD at "far" position (x>~50cm), we look at the response of Yiqun reconstruction to single photons.
