High Q2 KaonLT LT-separations
|
22
|
- found a bug affecting the pion subtraction undertainty
|
23
|
- uncertainty propagated correctly now
|
24
|
- pion subtraction also improved a bit, some bins were over-subtracted, which
|
25
|
explained some bad phi bins in ratio plots
|
26
|
|
27
|
- made a new method of doing Rosenbluth fits
|
28
|
- was hitting fit bounds before
|
29
|
- earlier fits imposed a boundary condition sigL,sigT>0
|
30
|
- now derived a better constrained fit using Cauchy-Schwarz inequality
|
31
|
- baked the positivity constraint into the fit itself
|
32
|
- model is now pushed out of unphysical local minima
|
33
|
- uses Drechsel-Tiator J.Phys.G paper available at
|
34
|
https://maid.kph.uni-mainz.de/JPhysG18/JPhysG18.pdf
|
35
|
- uses rhoLT=|sigLT|/sqrt(sigT*sigL)<1.0
|
36
|
rhoTT=|sigTT|/sigT<1.0
|
37
|
- copy of Richard's derivation of relation at
|
38
|
https://redmine.jlab.org/attachments/2878
|
39
|
|
40
|
- now using much simpler functional forms for Q2=4.4
|
41
|
- sigL=(p1*ft)*exp(-p2*|t|)
|
42
|
sigT=p5/(|t|^p6)*exp(-p7*|t|)
|
43
|
sigLT,sigTT also simpler, have no sin(theta*) terms yet
|
44
|
- did 20 iterations with new forms
|
45
|
- ratios much closer to 1 now, some evidence of oscillations so might
|
46
|
restore the sin(theta*) in LT,TT
|
47
|
- Q2,W,t,MM plots
|
48
|
- MC:data disagreement worse for left SHMS than center at low epsilon
|
49
|
similar is true at high epsilon
|
50
|
- initial results: sigL~20%*sigT sigLT~sigTT
|
51
|
|
52
|
- investigating other settings
|
53
|
- need to adjust pion subtraction
|
54
|
- Q2=3.0,W=3.14 left SHMS SIMC at both low and high epsilon has a shift in MM
|
55
|
peak compared to data
|
56
|
- still has to do HGC PID pt-pt systematics, currently estimates ~3.6% unc
|
57
|
|
58
|
- mentions some difficulty running SIMC for very large #events
|
59
|
- Garth: you can modify SIMC to use a random seed that you specify rather
|
60
|
than the default one, in which case you can break a big SIMC job into
|
61
|
smaller parts, provided eacn one uses a different random seed
|
62
|
|
63
|
- Nacer asks for a copy of Richard's sig_unsep files, would like to check if he
|
64
|
gets similar Rosenbluth fit to Richard
|
65
|
- Richard's data at
|
66
|
/lustre24/expphy/volatile/hallc/c-kaonlt/trottar/OUTPUT/Analysis/KaonLT/cache_transfer/kaon/Q4p4W2p74/Trial_20/
|
67
|
- this is where all runs are for Q2=4.4 for the plots. Run
|
68
|
2025June26_H07M55S23 (i=20) are where the plots are from. In
|
69
|
2025June26_H07M55S23/xsects are the separated and unseparated cross section
|
70
|
values
|
71
|
- 2025June26_H07M55S23/parameters/par.pl_Q44W274.dat is my parameterization
|
72
|
and 2025June26_H07M55S23/functions/Q4p4W2p74.model is my model

|
Q2=0.5 KaonLT LT-separations
|
77
|
- setting up framework
|
78
|
- for Rosenbluth fit, using python curve_fit
|
79
|
https://docs.scipy.org/doc/scipy/reference/generated/scipy.optimize.curve_fit.html
|
80
|
- compared to GH's L/T/LT/TT values obtained with PHYSICA, gets same central
|
81
|
values, hasn't compared the errors yet
|
82
|
- sigL is negative for most t-bins, but no iterations have been done yet,
|
83
|
this was with default Koltenuk model and ratios R~2
|
84
|
- working on parameter iteration script
|

KaonLT BSA analysis
|
89
|
- added dummy subtraction
|
90
|
- updated t-binning based on sum of Left, Center, Right SHMS settings, not just
|
91
|
Center
|
92
|
- now has ~60k events/bin
|
93
|
- simplified fit clearly makes more sense than full fit, which overfits the
|
94
|
fluctuations in the data
|
95
|
- extracted mean kinematics per t-bin
|
96
|
- *NB* Garth suggests to cross-check both the mean kinematics and the yields
|
97
|
per t-bin with Nacer's, in the region where they overlap
|
98
|
- also looked at higher Q2 K+ BSA
|
99
|
- Q2=2.1 and Q2=3.0,W=2.32 have good statistics, BSA looks fairly promising
|
100
|
- Q2=4.4,5.5 statistics too poor to have much of a result
|
101
|
- hasn't looked yet at Q2=3.0,W=3.14 setting
