|
-------------
|
|
21
|
- Optics
|
|
22
|
- will meet with Holly on Thursday
|
|
23
|
- Holly working on SHMS CaFe optics data (actually taken during PionLT)
|
|
24
|
- wants to "wrap up" optics in the next month
|
|
25
|
- finalize high mom HMS ME (6.8 GeV/c)
|
|
26
|
- finalize 5.5, 5.8 GeV/c ME
|
|
27
|
- still need to see if both are needed, or if one can do both well
|
|
28
|
- SHMS high mom corrections
|
|
29
|
- need to see if Holly's higher momentum ME will also work for our
|
|
30
|
8.0GeV/c optics data, or if separate ME are needed
|
|
31
|
- HMS delta-corrections
|
|
32
|
|
|
33
|
- Main PionLT analysis
|
|
34
|
- will meet w/Richard to discuss diamond cut script
|
|
35
|
|
|

Nathan Updates
|
|
37
|
--------------
|
|
38
|
- PionLT/KaonLT talk at Hall C January workshop
|
|
39
|
- extended discussion on Nathan's talk outline and what can be shown
|
|
40
|
TH: would like to see as many "in progress" plots as possible, to indicate
|
|
41
|
that there has been progress
|
|
42
|
- Data/SIMC Ratios, initial ratios probably will not look very good
|
|
43
|
- people shouldn't judge us on the quality of the agreement at this early
|
|
44
|
stage
|
|
45
|
- try to find a setting where things are looking better and show that one
|
|
46
|
- instead of showing ratios, can show overlap of distributions, to show
|
|
47
|
whether the shapes agree
|
|
48
|
- can also give some information on why the analysis is taking so long
|
|
49
|
- a slide on various issues encountered
|
|
50
|
- can give links to information from Oct Analysis meeting
|
|
51
|
TH: try to get some plots from Richard, and then distribute a new draft so
|
|
52
|
we can come up with some proper narrative for them
|
|
53
|
|
|
54
|
- Nathan, Richard, Ali will meet today at 14:00 Eastern
|
|
55
|
- Nathan will distribute a new draft by Friday
|
|
56
|
- We will meet Friday at 14:00 Eastern to give Nathan some useful feedback and
|
|
57
|
suggestions on how to present the information effectively
|

Ali Updates
|
|
60
|
-----------
|
|
61
|
- New full replay of KaonLT data
|
|
62
|
- new error calc (binomial)
|
|
63
|
- corrected TLT for Beam Off time
|
|
64
|
- the new calc is in addition to the old calc, not instead of it
|
|
65
|
- updates to SHMS tracking
|
|
66
|
- RT was seeing problems in positive polarity Lumi runs, when comparing
|
|
67
|
tracked and untracked
|
|
68
|
- after some comparison with Peter B, it was found some pruning and
|
|
69
|
track selection parameters were different than his recommended values
|
|
70
|
- changes only made to SHMS, since HMS is electrons only and doesn't
|
|
71
|
seem to have the same problem
|
|
72
|
- changes implemented for nearly all data types (except Heep Singles)
|
|
73
|
|
|
74
|
Richard Updates
|
|
75
|
---------------
|
|
76
|
- Debugging Bill's LT-sep code
|
|
77
|
- have all inputs to the cross section code now
|
|
78
|
- can run average_kinematics and other Fortran codes now
|
|
79
|
- main issue was that there are many versions of the files, took a lot of
|
|
80
|
time to sort out what's important
|
|
81
|
GH: yes, we tried many different ways of doing background subtraction
|
|
82
|
and other things in Bill's omega analysis, and I guess you have all
|
|
83
|
parallel verisons of the code, and not only the final version
|
|
84
|
(unfortunately)
|
|
85
|
- meeting Stephen next week (while at JLab) on the code
|
|
86
|
|
|
87
|
- SIMC changes
|
|
88
|
- sent DG information outlining the changes he made to SIMC, so DG can
|
|
89
|
review them before pushing to main version
|
|
90
|
|
|
91
|
Vijay Updates
|
|
92
|
-------------
|
|
93
|
- will start looking at the LT-sep code
|
|
94
|
- also need to complete many studies needed to finalize normalize yields
|
|
95
|
|
|
96
|
Alicia Updates
|
|
97
|
--------------
|
|
98
|
- submitted batch jobs over the break, which ran successfully
|
|
99
|
- need to implement Dummy Target subtraction, and look at BSA for other
|
|
100
|
settings
|
|
