2. two peaks in TPC Vz, different than Lidia's fast production. Due to different release or BFC option? will check with Lidia
3. primary vertex selection, use vertices with largest good TPC track, or with highest ranking? will plot their Vz correlation.
4. plot TPC Vz vs VPD Vz, number of tracks and TOF matched tracks from selected primary vertex, in association with number of IST hits
5. plot MaxAdcTimeBin distribution for all IST hits and IST hits with matched TPC+TOF tracks
IST Calibration for Run15 - All
1. Goal: update the initial version of IST tables for Run15 by the end of second week in September - Yaping & Bingchu
2. Study pile-up IST hits and determine whether to throw away IST hits with MaxAdcTimeBin=0 - Yaping

contribution from TB0 hits reduced after VPDMB-5cm trigger fix, as expected. In order to meet 1B VPDMB-5cm goal, will increase VPDMB-5 bandwidth, and turn on HFT earlier in store. Run14 full pre-production completed, need IST QA (Yaping). Run14 full cosmic data production completed, need IST gain calibration (Bingchu). Run15 pre-view production produced, check IST efficiency (Yaping).
1. Operation Results - Xiaozhi
60% cooling reservior level, 30-40% in 3-4 weeks. will info Bob in advance
Wait for a few more days before asking John again about the network interfaces
Define a reference run for online QA plos, after Bingchu updates istBuilder
2. Calibration and Run14 Data QA - Yaping
Ticket 3052 fixed. Will follow up with ticket 3056
Run14 full pre-production completed, will produce run-dependent QA plots (number of IST hits vs run number). Will try to understand the reduction of number of IST hits in certain sensors in certain runs (pedestal shifts or ?) Will plot Max ADC time bin distributions to verify no trigger problem.
Will run IST efficiency tool on Run15 data to check IST efficiency
3. Software and Run15 Data Checking - Bingchu
a. found the issue of many hits in frist timebin, it is due to vpdmb wrong TACs. Trigger group has fixed it by set the min VPD TAC to 300.
b. IST in HFT online monitoring webpage has one more QA pdf link of IST raw adc distribution for each run.
c. Online istBuilder will be implemented soon. I will update it with a new algorithm of bad channel rejection.

5. Minutes - Zhenyu
Minutes:
Attendance: Bingchu, Xiaozhi, Zhenyu (Yaping sent slides by email)
1. Operations, IST Alarm Test (Xiaozhi)
1) No issue on IST operations, first collisional data taken with IST today 9-11am today.
2) Went through the IST online QA plots together with Bingchu and Zhenyu.
3) IST power supply and cooling alarm tests successful. A test report posted.
Action items:
1) Make sure to understand all the QA plots.
2) Complete the alarm test report with when the alarms are cleared during the test procedure.
2. Run15 Ist Chip Status in Online QA (BIngchu)
1) Chip 6/1/14 and 6/4/14 show as hot chips. Checked the data in pedestal and cosmic runs. Wonder why both IST/zs and IST/adc data chunks exist in st_adc_ files.
Action items:
1) ask Tonko about st_adc_ files - Answer is yes. Both chunks exist
2) plot raw adc distritributions in cosmic data and compare with those in pedestal runs
3. Run15 database and Run14 Data QA (Yaping)
1) Run15 databases are initialized, 6 pedNoise tables uploaded.
2) Run14 pre-production QA plots made.
Action items:
1) understand why sensors 49-54 have zero hits in day 166 and 167 in Run14
2) understand fluctuations of some ladders in online QA plots in Run14
