Minutes

``Attending: Elton, Mark, Colin, Lei (JLab); Will (CMU); Sean (FSU); Tegan, Zisis (UofR); Rupesh, Tolga (FIU)

1. Announcements
   • Accelerator will be down till about Mar 26. Opportunity to take cosmic data.
   • Lei joins the group with two students that will start working on neutron/photon separation in BCAL.
2. Action Items
   • Timing in BCAL MC put on hold to focus on rate dependencies in analysis
   • For the eta analysis in the FCAL, trees of pi+pi-gg need to be created without fit to eta. This needs to be checked.
3. FCAL Update
   1. Run related
      • logbook entry now with good plots (Colin)
      • Pedestals have been investigated vs run number.
      • Average of all channels for each run vs run number is ~99.6 and has a small systematics as a function of run number of order of 0.1 counts.
      • Most are very constant. However, some show averages ~ 98. We need to keep track of these more closely during running so that hardware thresholds are uniform.
      • Sean: Are they entered into CCDB? Not yet.
4. BCAL update
   1. Run related
      • Plan to take cosmic data while beam is down. Use self-trigger.
5. Calibrations
   1. Low Level Calibrations (Mark)
      • Completed all run dependent calibrations. Checked overall timing, which looks good with a few run exceptions. They will be checked.
   • some pi0 calibration plots (Tegan)
6. Reconstruction and Simulation
7. NIM articles
   • Updates to submission. Note that deadline for resubmission is Mar 31.
8. Any other business
