Comparisons between STAR and PHENIX

 This is a page that Thomas will edit to work on comparisons between STAR and PHENIX Non-Photonic electrons

production of binary events for L2 algos

Under:

 Here is prescription how to convert any muDst to the binary event format, needed to run L2-algos stand alone (by multiTest.C)

Event size estimation

Under:

 Estimation of FGT event size for pp events @ 500 GeV is 20KB/eve after ZS, physics event will use 80% of this volume.

SPIN 2008 Talk for Neutral Pions

Hi all-

My Spin 2008 talk and proceedings can be found below.

 Update:

v2 reflects updates based on comments from SPIN pwg and others

01 changes to L2 algos from last year

Under:

 * verify every aborting algo is using random accept prescale based on prescale method and is randomly initialize upon start.

2009 pp run

Under:
  •  pre-run 2009 L2 code release , January 15, 2009, by Ross 
  • L2 mapping used in 2009 data taking, 56 BTOW towers were swapped (attachment 1)

 

Concerning the 'floating' mass peak and Zgg

 Objective:

Explore the pt-dependent mean mass position in data and MC and perhaps draw some conclusions about the quality of our simulations.

Details:

7 PR track plots with UPGR16 & fixed barrel

Under:

Geometry= UPGR16, 6 FGT disks , fixed barrel geometry.

Single electrons, 20 GeV ET, thrown at eta=0, 0.4, 0.8, 1.2, 1.6, 2.0

Special Attention Ought to be Paid to Zgg

The collaboration has concerns about the SMD, and not without reason.  They, they SMDs, have been notoriously hard to understand and model.

Cut Variation Tests

Goal:

To test the stability of the cross section measurement to changes in the analysis cuts and, if necessary, assign a systematic uncertainty for cut variations.

Early Studies

  

Jigsaw Fits (2nd try)

 Following up from this post concerning the modeling of the invariant m

6 radiation length study for UPGR16 + SSD

Under:

Study of the dead material in front and behind FGT.

3 versions of GEANT geometries were investigated:

TPC Pt and DCA resolution

[Update on 2010-06-21: global track momentum resolution has now also been studied using Cosmic rays study, version 2, with some as yet unexplained good performance at very high pT

TPC performance

 Documentation on performance of the TPC
 

Candidate Level Comparisons

Objective:

Data/Filtered Pythia Inv. Mass Distributions
