Lorentz effect on charged tracks

For this study, I generated 1000 pions +/- per event with  :

Statistical Errors for data and simulation for 2006 dijet cross section

For both data and simulation, I calculated the distribution of cos(theta*), 1/2(eta3 + eta4), and invariant mass. The simulation jets were appropriately weighted.

Silicon hits

 We put the silicon hits information for analysis code.

cuts used :

nHitsFit >20

|eta|<1.0

dcaGlobal <1.5

nFit/nPoss >0.52 

 

Same cuts, bigger samples!

 I've finished generating 500k piminus events, 50k pizeros, and 50k single photons (all sitting in magic_single_particle with the earlier samples), and have put them through the same cuts

Effect of Momentum Resolution on Electron Gains

The momentum resolution from the TPC NIM Paper is 2% + 1.5% * pt.

Intro :

The quality of SSD hits is calculated as the ratio of the sum of strips fired by the GEANT hit over the charge of the reconstructed cluster.

How to add images to a page (examples of the diverse solutions)

This may become a FAQ but since it came a few times, here is a run-down of the ways one could attach images to Drupal and their scope/usage restrictions.

Background conversion probability using identified pi0 sample, take 2

Abstract:  A sample of identified π0 decays Background conversion probability using identified pi0 sample to measure the conversion rates for background events and/or estimate the mean number of photons detected by the preshower system within various radii of the π0 candidate.  In this note we
  1. Estimate the mean number of photons detected by the preshower system w/in four isolation regions around the reconstructed π0,
  2. Estimate the mean number of photons incident on the tower(s) containing the two photons in the reconstructed π0, and
  3. Estimate the mean number of photons incident on the tower containing the leading photon in the reconstructed π0.
