Agenda

  1. CDC settings for the rest of the run
    1. Results from the CDC threshold scan run 41611 to 41614 (CDC hardware threshold 90, 110, 120, 140)
      1. normalized rho yields at TH=120 increase by 4.3%, at TH=140 increase by 5.8%. Since these are different runs the data was normalized to the PS-flux
      2. the rho yields seem to scale linearly with CDC hardware threshold.
      3. CDC software threshold scan using run 41611 with hardware threshold at 90. First 3 files of the run are analyzed, same data so no normalization necessary. At 110 a rho yield increase of 3.3% is seen, at 140 a rho yield increase of 3.7% is seen, at 150 a rho yield increase of 3.4% is seen, at 160 a rho yield increase of 2.7% is seen.
      4. the rho yields do not scale linearly with software threshold! They saturate at about 140 (same as the highest hardware threshold)
      5. the software threshold of 140 leads to a rho yield increase of 3.7% while the hardware threshold of 140 to about 5.8%, this may be an indication that there is some shadowing effect.
      6. run 41614 with hardware threshold at 140, an increase of the software threshold from 150 to 160 does not increase the rho yield at a measurable level.
      7. see logbook entry: https://logbooks.jlab.org/entry/3544993
    2. Impact of the CDC Hit timing cut in the track reconstruction
      1. The increase in rho yield is significant. The cut is set at -60ns to 900ns
      2. The higher the luminosity the higher the impact. At the highest luminosity (Run 41343) the impact was a factor of 2 increase in rho yield.
      3. Similar effects are observed in the omega yields (both decay modes).
    3. Impact of CDC Hit pruning, the removal of hits correlated in time with high amplitude hits that go into saturation on the same preamp card.
      1. A test on run 41343 with and without this pruning results in a increase rho yield of 4.6%. see also https://logbooks.jlab.org/entry/3543986 and https://logbooks.jlab.org/entry/3543986
