The STAR experiment

TAC difference of BBC small tiles, large tiles and VPD have been decoded from trigger files and added to the anaysis tree in Output.root.

Here is the reference for the alignment blog entry:

Based on the original time dependent correction scheme, I tried a slightly different way to calculate "gcorr" for a given event.

 There are three different PT bins: 2-10, 10-13, and 13-17. There are two plots for each bin; the first is the complete fit including the eta meson peak.

Here I show the effect that increasing the energy the jet finder sees in the endcap has on the jet pt and eta spectra.

In order to properly ensure our embedded simulation request works properly, we examine the distributions of various quantities.

The TPC Twist calibration involves using vertices reconstructed by the TPC, and the current practice is to compare the vertices re

I wanted to be sure that the simulations we're making for TPC alignment residual studies was really doing what we want it to do...

Log files have this output:

For data simulation comparison:

FMS pi^{0} pt>2.0GeV/c and BEMC(EEMC) 1.0GeV/c<pt<2.0GeV/c

For jet-like and underlying comparison:

 Now that we have figured out how to do simulations without hadronic processes (i.e.

FMS pt>2.5GeV/c and BEMC(EEMC) 1.5GeV/c<pt<2.5GeV/c
