|
-------------
|
21
|
iFarm issues, still dealing w/bugs related to ALMA9 migration, changes to
|
22
|
Python syntax, etc.
|
23
|
- Richard is making updates to LTsep package for new hcana version
|
24
|
- Richard's goal is to have everything working before Aug 20, when the last
|
25
|
RH7 node disappears
|
26
|
- Junaid has posted isntructions on RedMine about ALMA9 setup
|

-------
|
30
|
- Gave a talk on Lumi analysis @ NPS meeting that you might want to look up

|
32
|
|
33
|
- Dave also gave a talk on SIMC at this meeting you might find useful
|

|
35
|
|
36
|
- Suggested that Nathan give a talk on BCM Calibs @ Quarterly Analysis Meeting
|
37
|
- Stephen has made a note of this. The meeting is planned for early Sept.

KaonLT LT-separations
|
40
|
- changed functional forms (based on Fpi-2 experience)
|
41
|
|
42
|
SigL=p1*QfacL*tpole*exp(-p6*|t|)
|
43
|
where QfacL=Q2/(1+1.77*Q2+0.12*(Q2**2))
|
44
|
- the 1.77, 0.12 factors are from Fpi-2, they would eventually have to be
|
45
|
changed for KaonLT
|
46
|
|
47
|
SigT=p5*QfacT*exp(-p8*|t|)
|
48
|
where QfacT=exp(-(Q2**2))/Q2
|
49
|
|
50
|
SigLT=p9/(1+Q2)*exp(-p10*|t|)
|
51
|
SigTT=p13/(1+Q2)*exp(-p14*|t|)
|
52
|
|
53
|
- looking at Q2=3.0,W=3.14 with new functions
|
54
|
- note that sigT has no t-dependence
|
55
|
- *NB* ratios at low epsilon indicate that adding a t-dep to sigT would
|
56
|
probably be helpful, maybe of the form (A+B*exp(-C*|t|))
|

|
-----
|
60
|
- also dealing with ALMA9 issues, things are now working and doing replays for
|
61
|
detection volume systematic uncertainty study
|
62
|
- tried changing functional form for LT, TT
|
63
|
- oscillations in ratios did not change much
|
64
|
- *NB* will need to try a different change to LT, TT, probably with a
|
65
|
stronger t-dependence
|
66

Ali

|
---
|
69
|
- away last week in Quebec
|
70
|
- before he left, finished piDelta BSA analysis which Alicia showed in her talk
|
71
|
- GH suggested that Ali show plots of asymmetry vs phi for all settings at
|
72
|
next meeting
|
73
|
|
74
|
- BSA systematic uncertainty studies not yet done (mostly cut dependence)
|
75
|
- GH had suggested to also do HGC-cut dependence study
|
76
|
- would compare a tighter cut to nominal cut, not a looser one
|
77
|
|
78
|
- Need to inquire on status of piDelta theory calcs, none were yet available
|
79
|
last year
|
80
|
- will check first with Stefan Diehl if he is aware of any developments
|
81
|
|
82
|
Alicia
|
83
|
------
|
84
|
- summarized updates to pi+n BSA paper based comments from co-authors
|
85
|
- CLAS-6 also showed Q2-dependence of BSA, but over a wide integrated x-range
|
86
|
- theirs was primarily to show change in sign from t-channel to u-channel
|
87
|
- need to clarify that ours is for specific xB, which is new
|
88
|
- also summarized PRL justification text and list of potential referees
|
89
|
|
90
|
- additional comments just received from B-G Yu, paper likely won't be
|
91
|
submitted until week of July 29
|

-----
|
95
|
KaonLT Heep yield comparison
|
96
|
- recently finished 6.2, 8.2 GeV
|
97
|
- earlier, had done 3.8, 4.9, with Data/MC ratios near 1
|
98
|
- 6.2 GeV ratios simiar to Richard, but 8.2 GeV ratios are somewhat different
|
99
|
- 8.2 GeV:
|
100
|
- *NB* small issue with plotting script, ratios are not quite constant
|
101
|
- Data/MC=1.127, while Richard had 1.28
|
102
|
- appears to be good news, but we need to understand what's different
|
103
|
- analysis uses a modified script based on Richard's old one
|
104
|
- uses Richard's LH2 boiling correction
|
105
|
|
106
|
- still analyzing 10.6 GeV data
|
107
|
- *NB* will meet with Richard offline after both are done to compare numbers
|
108
|
and see what's different
