---------------
|
|
24
|
PID for the right SHMS setting
|
|
25
|
- Doing proton analysis from pion cuts
|
|
26
|
- Subtract from MM for kaon
|
|
27
|
- Will do same thing with pion background
|
|
28
|
- Hopefully huge peak in right setting will make more sense
|
|
29
|
- will do for settings where there is large background, primarily Q22=5.5, 2.1
|
|
30
|
- haven't looked yet at Q2=4.0, 3.0
|
|
31
|
|
|
32
|
Lumi analysis
|
|
33
|
- still have to discuss some issues with Carlos, so this is still a work in
|
|
34
|
progress
|
|
35
|
|
|
36
|
- 10.6 GeV scan #1 - SHMS 6.842, SHMS Theta 6.495, HMS -3.266, HMS Theta 12.530
|
|
37
|
- Relative track yield only shown
|
|
38
|
- Carbon Runs 5154-5298 looks pretty good, quite flat
|
|
39
|
- Hydrogen Runs 5150-5166 looks like it potentially has a slight bit of
|
|
40
|
anti-boiling, ~1.5% @ 70uA
|
|
41
|
|
|
42
|
- Lumi scan #2
|
|
43
|
- Carbon 5178-5181 looks flat
|
|
44
|
- Hydrogen looks like it's anti-boiling, ~3% @ 500kHz (ELREAL)
|
|
45
|
- Effect seems to take off > 250kHz
|
|
46
|
|
|
47
|
- Lumi scan #3 - One Peter/Mark took, SHMS -6.2
|
|
48
|
- Carbon 5351-5358 slight decine, but errors large
|
|
49
|
- LH2 5342-5350 HMS strong boiling, ~6% @ 25uA, still investigating
|
|
50
|
- Bad TLTs for this setting
|
|
51
|
- Some had runs times < 1 minute
|
|
52
|
- Some odd cut going on?
|
|
53
|
- Other than setting #3, things look pretty good overall
|
|
54
|
- LHS 5342-5350 Track SHMS
|
|
55
|
- two outliers, otherwise fine, same issue with LT
|
|
56
|
|
|
57
|
- 8.2 GeV Lumi Run #1 - SHMS -5.745, HMS -5.745
|
|
58
|
- HMS carbon looks ok, quite flat
|
|
59
|
- HMS hydrogen looks ok, some boiling, ~4% at 50uA
|
|
60
|
- SHMS carbon 7948-7951 - anti boiling @ 250kHz (ELREAL)
|
|
61
|
- SHMS LH2 7954-7960 - 2% boiling @ 50uA
|
|
62
|
- Overall lumi looks pretty good
|
|
63
|
|
|
64
|
- Lumi studies can nearly be wrapped up
|
|
65
|
- GH: plan for this?
|
|
66
|
- RT: Give definitive reasons for each of the effects seen, and rejecting
|
|
67
|
- bad runs
|
|
68
|
- Look at HMS/SHMS across all settings, get a definitive boiling correction
|
|
69
|
- HMS should give more reliable boiling result, since lower rates, but
|
|
70
|
SHMS should be consistent with it once rate dependence effects are
|
|
71
|
removed
|
|
72
|
- GH: Rate dependence from physics data? i.e. the settings where we took
|
|
73
|
data at different currents for same setting, a Lumi scan with Physics data
|
|
74
|
- since there seems to be limited good Lumi data to confirm
|
|
75
|
rate-dependent effects, we need to use the Physics Lumi study to
|
|
76
|
confirm rate dependences and find overall rate correction
|
|
77
|
- TH: agrees, it looks like there is a residual rate dependence that is not
|
|
78
|
yet understood
|
|
79
|
- No carbon boiling, but something else we don't understand
|
|
80
|
- March/April 2019 data, had some where we varied the current across a
|
|
81
|
setting
|
|
82
|
- Ali will dig out the runs
|
|
83
|
- AU: "8038-8085 This is largest rate variance in SHMS. There S1X goes upto
|
|
84
|
2.5 MHz"
|
|
85
|
- GH: Vijay, plot on left with increasing SHMS rate is important, if this is
|
|
86
|
real, need to correct for it in Summer 2019 pion data too
|
|
87
|
- it would be really helpful to compare Mar/Apr KaonLT and Summer-2019
|
|
88
|
rate dependence analyses to see if they're consistent
|
|
89
|
- any significant difference might indicate a systematic uncertainty

|
|
105
|

|
Hall C Quarterly Analysis Meeting
|
|
110
|
- Carlos Lumi studies
|
|
111
|
- Richard update on SIMC kinematic variable scripts
|
|
112
|
- David Hamilton on NPS software changes
|
|
113
|
- maybe Peter Bosted can discuss some of his findings?
|
|
114

|
Brief run through of GHP talk
|
|
116
|
- EIC/JLab22 Pion Structure prospects
|
|
117
|
- Tanja notes:
|
|
118
|
- It's pion structure functions with exclusive reactions, no? -> Update
|
|
119
|
slide 1 title
|
|
120
|
- One thing to be careful with is the statement "cannot do L/T separations"
|
|
121
|
since one can do it if one has a good angular coverage as shown by data
|
|
122
|
analysis from Hall B. Saying "traditional L/T is problematic" seems fine.
|
|
123
|
- Depends who's in your audience :-)
|
|
124
|
- JLab 22 GeV is very useful even if there is an EIC - one can motivate that
|
|
125
|
it provides a window between JLab 12 and EIC
