Vpd Simulation Database Table

 Variables:
    short tubeRes[38];   // The resolution of a single Vpd tube in picoseconds to be simulated.

        octet tubeId[38]; // The offline ID (0-37) of the Vpd tube

    octet tubeStatusFlag[38]; // Flag for whether tube was active (True) or not (False) in a given Run

    octet tubeTriggerFlag[38]; // Flag for whether tube was triggered on (True) or not (False) in a given Run (again, simulation). Note that there will be overlap with the tubeStatusFlag, but could be additional False entries as well.

 

Frequency:

This table will be updated whenever the Calibrations_tof::vpdTotCorr table is updated, generally once per RHIC Run
