PionLT First Today

Jacob Updates
|
17
|
|
18
|
- Journal clubs resumed at Ohio
|
19
|
- Presented first, had to work on condensing 15 pages of theory paper into a coherent talk
|
20
|
- HMS optics page on wiki updated, looks nicer than Stephen's summary one
|
21
|
- Stephen will send on location to move these to
|
22
|
- Probably best to divide this into HMS/SHMS optics pages
|
23
|
- Add columns/comment on data location and when it was taken - KaonLT Autumn 18 /mss/hallc/spring17/raw and so on
|
24
|
- Dave G reiterates that data beyond +-8 in delta for the HMS is hopeless
|
25
|
- Jacob - Need to exclude it from trying to do the matrix element fit, will ruin fit in regions we actually care about
|
26
|
|
27
|
Nathan Updates
|
28
|
|
29
|
- Reference time cuts updates
|
30
|
- HMS 3/4 trigger, concern last time that this could cause issues
|
31
|
- Shouldn't affect things, comes in after
|
32
|
- Confirmed detector variables that should be used for coin with Carlos
|
33
|
- Carlos had script to set detector time cuts
|
34
|
- hTref1 and 2 give trig and hodo tdc ref times
|
35
|
- DCREF 1-5 for HMS and 1-8 for SHMS give the DC adc ref times
|
36
|
- Jacob Q - Will any change update anything in std.kin?
|
37
|
A - No, will change std.database a lot
|
38
|
- Plot on slide 3 is both coincidences and singles at the same time
|
39
|
- Dave G - Could set up cuts for coin/singles specifically, 2 sets
|
40
|
- hT1/hT2 shifted by ~1 bin, just set based on hT1
|
41
|
- Cut is loose anyway
|
42
|
- hDCREF3 furthest to the left, use this for cuts
|
43
|
- Slide 24 - Cuts for HMS
|
44
|
- Jacob, would be nice to see where these cuts are visually
|
45
|
- Nathan, yes would be illustrative, will make plots and add to slides
|
46
|
- 3/4 and elREAL coming in at difference times in the SHMS
|
47
|
- Slide 43 - Suggested SHMS cuts, tw osets, elREAL and 3/4
|
48
|
- Next step is to look at detector time cuts
|
49
|
- Carlos' code, impression is that it checks detector times based upon existing cuts and flags up if there are discrepancies
|
50
|
- Dave G emphasies the importance of also checking this too, look at each of the plots
|
51
|
- Hopefully code does this
|
52
|
|
53
|
Richard Updates
|
54
|
|
55
|
- SIMC part of Bill's LTSep code
|
56
|
- Richard outlines layout and steps of LT analysis
|
57
|
- See slides for details
|
58
|
- In Analysed_Prod.py, some naming conventions different in COIN_DATA_Header
|
59
|
- Q2, SIMC data had to be scaled a lot
|
60
|
- Was this a unit error?
|
61
|
- SIMC always uses mC
|
62
|
- Dave Q - What model is being used?
|
63
|
- A - Using whatever is already in there at the minute
|
64
|
- Dave - Whatever is there at the minute, it's using something that was there when he was a grad student
|
65
|
- SHMS right setting for Q2 = 5.5 looks bad, lots of pions there, events at -ve -t (!)
|
66
|
- Total efficiency for low epsilon values seems very low ( ~45%)
|
67
|
- Need to debug this
|
68
|
- Look directly at the relevant report file
|
69
|
- Finalising offsets, Dave and Richard meeting next week
|
70
|
- Need to make sure SIMC variables match up
|
71
|
|
72
|
Ali Updates
|
73
|
|
74
|
- Presented some efficiencies work in the analysis meeting
|
75
|
- Should have calorimeter efficiencies ready by next meeting
|
76
|
- SJDK - HGC is also to do
|
77
|
- Dave G - Yes will be hard. Also very hard to get a clean pion sample without the HGC
|
78
|
- Shuo tried to do HGC free analysis, never got an accurate estimate kaon contamination
|
79
|
- May be saved by the exclusive nature of our reaction
|
80
|
- Dave G - Will want to do systematic checks on cutting/not cutting on the hole
|
81
|
|
82
|
Vijay Updates
|
83
|
|
84
|
- Testing analysis code on PionLT 2019 data
|
85
|
- Some errors, fixed some, still some to go
|
86
|
- Checking coin time cut for pion selection
|
87
|
- Will check other PID cuts
|
88
|
- Iterate on PID
|
89
|
- Python script did work on a single run
|
90
|
- Richard - Error most likely that a run is missing from the efficiency list
|
91
|
|
92
|
Alicia Updates
|
93
|
|
94
|
- Will present some plots/work next week
|
95
|
- Run asymmetries for another Q2 setting
|
96
|
- Got aluminium asymmetry
|
97
|
- See non-zero asymmetry here
|
98
|
- Root will fit a non-zero asymmetry to it...
|
99
|
- Stephen Wood - Could just assume asymmetry is 0, with some error on it
|
100
|
- Propagate error through
|
101
|
- Get a smooth background
|
102
|
- Can separate events by helicty, can't separate charge by helicity
|
103
|
- Didn't have helicity gated scalers during KaonLT run
|
104
|
- Work on assumption that charge assumption is negligible even if there is one there
|
105
|
- Could add a constant + ASinPhi, if non zero, have a charge asymmetry
|
106
|
|
107
|
- Next week -> KaonLT -> Alicia Asymmetries -> PionLT (?)
