Problems with applying TPC alignment
I ran a test (in SL09e) where I made the alignment of one sector grossly wrong.
Embedding structure
Organization, responsibilities, authorities and policies related to Embedding
Due to the increasing demand of the STAR collaboration, associated to the need for redundancy

Run 9 T0 differences between fields
T0-by-padrow calibrations were performed for Run 9 using run 10118050 for RFF and run 10184053 for FF.

Locations needing network access
WAH: (starp and DAQ/TRG devices are scattered throughout these locations. I am going to use the term “satellite racks” to include all locations within the C-AD PASS system
Reshape design goals
A. Only use managed switches and have each networked device plug directly into a managed switch port.
Run 9 TPC alignment artifacts
In trying to help Grant and Na complete the TPC alignment work for Run 9, I've observed some troublesome artifacts in the along-the-padrow residuals.
Preliminary examination of -/+ in st_W production
I grabbed the files of electron candidate tracks from Matt Walker which he used for his 10 Electron E/p from pp500 L2W events from the st_W sample production,
Transfer BNL/PDSF, summer 2009
This page will document the data transfers from/to PDSF to/from BNL in the summer/autumn of 2009.

Run 9 TPC field cage currents
Run 9 saw a continuation of the partial resistor short on OFC west which was seen in previous years, plus a new "full" resistor short on OFC west.
Sector 5 gains over the years
In the context of the Sector 5 anomaly, here are the gains for Sector 5 plotted by padrow vs. pad, and mean values per padrow (using only those pads with gains within +/-0.8 of 1.0).

New table for TPC slewing
Based on recent work I've done regarding First look at TPC slewing in Run 9 data, and presented at
What should be the default access for blogs?
First look at TPC slewing
Calibrating padrow-by-padrow T0s showed evidence of dependence of T0s on anode HV: the padrows under anode section 7-6 (padrows 22-29) showed a shift of 15-20 ns for a reduction in voltage fr
