Igal asked to looks at the constants as a function of module.  Karthik responded that he has those tools, and had looked at this for previous run periods.  Next steps: look at runs with solenoid off?  A discussion ensued on the need to do this and requirements on skims.  Bottom line is that most likely the gain constants from the solenoid on/chambers on will more than suffice for the remaining runs with Be and solenoid off.  Mark made the point that the gain constants have bee stable for years.  BCAL is only used as veto for the PrimEx analysis, but there is interest in looking at the η → 3π channel.

Goals for Calorimetry Group

  1. Determine preliminary photon reconstruction efficiencies as a function of E, phi and theta in data and simulation with a point-to-point precision of at least 5%.
  2. Measure systematics of pi0/eta mass calibration as a function of detector position to a precision of at least 5 MeV.
  3. Demonstrate agreement of photon reconstruction efficiency and resolution between data and simulation as a function of E, phi and theta to within 5%.

  1. Announcements
    1. This was the first meeting with ZoomGov. We will adjust the meeting preferences to be hostless or with multiple host.
    2. The telephone contact numbers above are not used, and they will be removed, starting with the next meeting.
    3. Matt mentioned that a Doodle poll will be sent out to gauge potential in-person participation at the GlueX Collaboration meeting potentially at FSU.
  2. Past Meeting Minutes: Zisis summarized the Dec 8, 2021 minutes.
  3. Run Operations
    1. FCAL: Mark reported that FCAL did well during the fall running, as bases were swapped out at the first sign of an issue.
