Ecalgeo V6.1
Plot of reconstructed energy/input energy as a function of input energy - comparing cvs version with version 6, version 6.1 and version 6.1 with pure lead. The replacement for pure lead means
Electron asymmetry
The goal is to obtain non-photonic electron asymmetry. To get there, various asymmetries need to be calculated, namely:
dE/dx cut, efficiency and electron purity
One of the electron id cut is the dE/dx cut. Unlike the other cuts, the efficiency of this cut is calculated from data instead of simulation.
Pre-embedding QA for W analysis II
Pre-embedding QA for W analysis II
Motivation: Verify compatibility of MC signal W events with real background events (zerobias) before embedding begins.
notes on w error
I've attached a latex document with some notes on sources of error for the W cross section. Please note that the latest version is entitled WxSectV2.
Electron identification efficiency
The electron identificatione fficiency is calculated to determine how effective the electron identification process done in this analysis is, and hence how much electrons there actually are, given
Photonic electron reconstruction efficiency
Photonic electron reconstruction efficiency is the background rejection efficiency.
Simulation analysis: track association and identifcation
To calculate electron identification and photonic electron reconstruction efficiencies, simulation dataset for both 2005 and 2006 are used.
Status of the work related to the problem of big memory usage in central hijing events
Description of the problem: big memory usage in reconstruction of AuAu 200 GeV hijing central events.
