03 correlated, small ADC spikes in BSMD (Jan)

Under:

Study of small ADC spikes in BSMD 

Input:

02 offline QA of BSMD pp 500, ver1 (Willie+Jan)

Under:

 BSMD QA algorithm and results for pp 500, tune optimized for high energy  energy response

FileCatalog DB performance study

Under:

FileCatalog DB is ~ 30% READ / 70% WRITE database. Spiders frequently update file locations (on local disks),  new files constantly appear during Run period etc..

07 BTOW status tables ver 1, uploaded to DB, pp 500

Under:

 BTOW status tables for 39 RHIC fills have been determined (see previous entry) and uploaded to DB.

MySQL Performance Tuning

Under:

MySQL performance tuning

Primary purpose:

How-To: user section

Under:

Useful database tips and tricks, which could be useful for STAR activities, are stored in this section.

DELETE - Run 9 BSMD Status Update 4 (4/27)

Under:

After further investigations -- specifically looking at strips that had a significant secondary peak, entirely separated from the main peak, with a max of ~40, which were not being caught by my cut

dAu200 (2008) SpaceCharge calibration quality check

Under:

 The improved SpaceCharge calibration from August 2008 was used in the P08ie productions of Run 8 dAu data.

EVO

This section contains information about using EVO for STAR meetings.

06 comparison of BTOW status bits L2ped vs. L2W , pp 500 (jan)

Under:

 Comparison of BTOW status tables generated based on minB spectra collected by L2ped ( conventional method) vs.

03 periodic summary of all acquired events

Under:

att 1) all W-events for ~300K from days 76-89

att 2) one fill from day 83, 34K W-events, I think BPRS peds were not subtracted for some runs, page 7

Summary:

Integral Delta G Study

 Using Werner's code I calculated A_LL for pi0 production over my eta range for 15 different integral values of Delta G.
