GridLeak Distortion Maps

 Using the code in StMagUtilities, these are maps of the GridLeak distortion.

TPC Hit Errors (Run 9)

 As was TPC Hit Errors (2008), hit errors were found for Run 9 by Victor Perevoztchikov.

pp200 (2009)

 This work is documented SC and GL TPC Calibration pp200 2009 .

TPC Slewing

Under:

Slewing was first First look at TPC slewing with the new TPX electronics. It was not seen in Run 8 data using the older TPC electronics.

Resistor box at the end of the Field Cage chain

Under:

 After ring 181, the potentials are determined by a box of resistors which sit outside the TPC.

ALTRO Settings

Under:

I toyed with Yuri's TPC simulation curve and I show you just one result:

SpaceCharge in dAu

Under:

In Run VIII, dAu data was acquired at high enough luminosities to worry about SpaceCharge (it was ignored previously in the Run III dAu data (2003)).

pp400 (2005)

Under:
pp400 (actually 410 GeV) data was collected on days 153 and 154 in early June 2005.

The attached file is a before and after calibration comparion of DCAs.
