h3. "Heepcheck offsets":https://redmine.jlab.org/issues/564 _%{background:yellow}Early September 2022%_
* Richard/Ali/Vijay
* Check that Heepcheck offsets produce consistent p(e,e'K+)L, p(e,e'pi+)n p(e,e'p)omega missing masses.
h3. "Initial ep elastic cross-section checks":https://redmine.jlab.org/issues/565 _%{background:yellow}Early September 2022%_
* Richard/Ali/Vijay
* Singles cross-sections, HMS and SHMS. SHMS delta scans (only peak position checked so far, stability of normalized yield ratio not yet checked). Coin ep cross-sections.
* In Fpi-2, determing the correct proton absorption correction for normalized required some literature review and other digging.
h3. "Check stability of cointime peak":https://redmine.jlab.org/issues/560 _%{background:yellow}???%_
* Vijay
** A previous study has been done by Vijay, need more info
* In Fpi-2 it drifted with TDC temperature and needed to be adjusted on a run-by-run basis to within 200 ps.
* Initial checks so far indicate the peak is stable. Cointime resolution will be poorer in fall 2018 run due to DAQ cabling issue. Mark has partial software fix that we need to be sure is implemented.
h3. "SHMS and HMS Optics Improvements":https://redmine.jlab.org/issues/559 _%{background:yellow}???%_
* Mark Jones
* "SHMS":https://hallcweb.jlab.org/DocDB/0010/001044/006/Update%20to%20Optics%20Cuts%20April%202020.pdf

h2. +Replays+
h3. "FULL REPLAY 1":https://redmine.jlab.org/issues/567 of data, with new calibrations **%{background:lightgreen}Done%**
* This replay should include all new kinematic offsets, better timing and PID calibrations, as well as Mark's most recent HMS and SHMS matrix elements.
* Quality control rechecks with new replay:
** carbon luminosity scans are flat vs. current and rate
** LH2 luminosity scans are flat vs. current and rate
* HMS saturation corrections?
* Final investigation of SHMS acceptance, optimize acceptance cuts based on sieve-slit run analysis, agreement with single-arm MC.
** Compare data and simulation plots of SHMS yfp,ypfp for various ytar,delta bins to identify inconsistencies.
* Trigger blocking studies.
** Are extra factors needed to correct for missing FADC reference times, or any other DAQ related effects? Initial info from Peter Bosted indicates this is likely to be the case.
* Recheck Heep singles and coin yields to identify and fix problems.
* Stability checks. Need some scripts to look at invariant mass vs run number, etc., for pi+/K+/p channels.
