p+p Run6 Spin PWG QA

Speaker : Adam Kocoloski ( MIT )


Talk time : 12:00, Duration : 00:10
    Basic QA work that has been done:
  • Pibero has checked that the straight-line tracking was successful
  • BEMC calibrations have projected tracks to towers and reconstructed MIP peaks
  • BEMC calibrations have used dE/dx to reconstruct electron E/p peaks
  • The jet finder is a major source of QA data for the Spin PWG. Discussions have begun this week about running a first pass of the jet finder over at PDSF for this purpose.

    Introduction

    This is not the final calibration for the 2006 data, but it's a big improvement over what's currently in the DB.  It uses MIPs to set relative gains for the towers in an
