Minutes

Data Production

  • Alex A. reported that the latest 2017 monitoring launch finished a few days ago, and the production of the 2016 "golden period" is well advanced.
  • Sean reported that some final TAGM calibrations are being done, and the only other thing left to do is finalizing the CDC calibrations. Another monitoring launch will be needed for this and to test recent updates to BCAL and FCAL calibrations.
  • It's possible we could launch 2017 production by the end of next week.

Analysis Focus: Total Cross Sections

  • No news since the collaboration meeting.

Studies: Other

  • Beni: When looking at the distribution of tracks hitting the TOF near the beam line, Beni sees 2x more tracks in a narrow phi range than he does at other phi. He's still trying to understand the source of this effect, but it does not look to be vertex-z dependent.
  • Mahmoud is working on finalizing the SC efficiencies, results of which were shown in Sean's Calibration talk at the Collaboration Meeting. Initial comparisons between data and HDGeant4 have been started.
  • Alex A. showed ρ beam asymmetries from 2017-01 offmon ver15, the asymmetries are consistent within the large statistical uncertainties, but the polarization angles are stable and consistent with the information in the RCDB.
