Simulation Reports
Will revisit these after the next mini-launch.
Analysis Focus: Total Cross Sections, Acceptance Corrections
- J/Ψ, φ --- Lubomir: Still need feedback from high-rate channels.
- φxsec --- Thomas: comparison of cross sections of phi -> K+K-, 3pi, eta gamma show:
- Difference between 2016 and 2017 results
- Dip near E(g) ~ 8.5 GeV only in K+K- final state, maybe a fitting issue?
- Difference between 2017 low and high rates only in K+K- final state
- Trying to understand these, many ideas thrown out. Efficiency calculations could be the cause. Paul M.: could try having Simon and Thomas analyze each other's final states
Studies: Hit Efficiencies & Triggering
(i.e. Is the detector working?) Updates on experiment, simulation, and the comparison between the two.
- Trigger efficiencies --- Alex Somov provided an update based on the new simulation code, looking at several final states
- Looking at exclusive omega -> pi0 gamma events, there is an overall reconstruction efficiency of ~50% (acceptance + reconstruction), trigger inefficiency is <1%.
- Eugene: Where does the inefficiency come from? Paul M.: Would be good to look at p-theta plots of reconstructed particles to see there are effects from e.g. photons converting in the FDC support structure.
- Exclusive rho -> pi+ pi- events have a trigger efficiency of ~90 - 95%.
- Looking at exclusive omega -> pi0 gamma events, there is an overall reconstruction efficiency of ~50% (acceptance + reconstruction), trigger inefficiency is <1%.
- FCAL Hit Efficiencies --- Mike Staib pointed out that there are some gain pathologies in ~10 blocks in the inner rings for 2016 data. Will discuss more in Calorimetry meeting tomorrow, but a good idea to use fiducial cuts to exclude this area.
