Discussion notes

Roman

  • Slide 2: Kaon distributions have more background SPR plot and likelihood distribution is wider for kaon than pions. Could the timing performance still be worse for kaons than pions
  • Slide 3: Preferred correction order is always to begin with per-PMT Cherenkov angle correction, since it keeps ring segments connected. Smearing by either track resolution (ring fit) or chromatic correction
  • Per-PMT Cherenkov angle correction
    • Some PMTs with bad correction, could be checked with MC?
  • Ring-fit correction
    • Sensitive to start values for the fits: use average of pion and kaon expected values.
    • How do the the correction factors vary over the DIRC plane?
      • Can we determine a map of expected track corrections as a function of r, phi?
  • Chromatic correction
    • Possible to use MC with varying timing resolutions to see if it follows the expectation. From this we could determine what time resolution would be required to make significant chromatic correction
    • Suggestion to divide time difference by path length to improve performance (from SLAC experience)
  • Comparison of corrections
    • Need to keep track of both SPR improvement and difference between thetaC mean with improvements
    • Kaon LL difference narrows as corrections improve performance
