Minutes

1. Tracking
   • Richard implemented in mcsmear a correction of the FDC cell efficiency and posted an example for the simple case of efficiency=1 (DOCA<4mm) and =0(DOCA>4mm). Using the standard plugin, the "measured" hit distribution looks OK, while the "expected" one is suppressed above 4mm, although it should be flat if the tracking is not biased by the hit efficiency in that particular region. Obviously this is not the case and we discussed ways of reducing this bias.
   • Ks reconstruction studies - Gabriel ...
2. Detector related reports
   • FA125
     • Cody loaded the new firmware onto ROCCDC1 and will reboot it so that he and Sergey can start reading out all CDC crates, using a pulser trigger, and look for itrigger mismatches online (without writing the data to tape).
   • CDC
     • We need to start taking cosmics and looking at noise levels as soon as we can, so that any problems can be found and fixed before the target goes in.
   • FDC
3. GEM-TRD
4. Other
