Kinematic Resolution and Accuracy Errors on Collins Asymmetry Measurement

RHIC & AGS Users' Meeting 2011 STAR transverse spin overview talk

This page has the draft(s) of my STAR transverse spin talk for the 2011 Users' Meeting.

Version 0: submitted to spin pwg on 6th June for comments.

Summary of EEMC Code

I've attempted to write a summary of various codes used for reconstructing particles using the EEMC.  A pdf document can be found here

Meeting initially to discuss AMQP project progres went onto the TPC anode voltage topic.

 

Progress thus far

Note the pion analysis is done using Weihong He's pion finder (full explanation of this code is included in his thesis found here:

Speculations based on 30 Runs from Run 11

 After looking at a small fraction of Run 11 data (30 runs) , I have looked for possible unexpected spin asymmetry effects.

Using Alice's Pion Example with the Scheduler

Here is an example of how to run Alice's pion code example with the scheduler.  This also solves the problem of finding the correct files.  If you run her example macro as is, you will find that most of the files she hardcoded in her data09.lis file are not accessable, yeilding many errors from root4star.  So try the following.

Follow up on Yan Yang's bad run list

 I have compared dE/dx distributions for AuAu 19 and pp500 using whole dE/dx sample and sample  with rejected runs taken from 

Mean Pedestal vs. APV Graph

 The way the program calculated the mean pedestal value was to assume the first value in each file was not a sign
