db04 issue : impact on the ssdNoise table (recover)

 A recent issue was found related to one ssd table in db.

For details : 

db04 issue for ssd data

 see db04-issue.pdf for introduction

(previous blog entry was deleted)

06 MIP algo ver 1.1

Under:

 TPC based MIP algo was devised to calibrate BPRS tiles.

Details of the algo are in 1st PDF,

05 ---- peds(softID,capID) & status table, ver=2.2, R9067013

Under:

INPUT: st_hysics events from run=9067013

04 BPRS sees beam background?

Under:

The pair of plots below demonstrates BPRS pedestal residua are very clean once peds for 128 caps are used and this 5% capID corruption is detected and fixed event by event.

Draft DB schema for StEmcDecoder

Update 2008-11-06: minor naming revisions:

  • use crate/crateChannel instead of crate/sequence in bemcMapping
  • use rdo/rdoChannel instead of crate/position in smd and prs mapping

Update 2008-11-03: I posted a new version of the schemas. The changes are:

  • drop softID field in favor of elementID, as the latter has a special meaning in STAR’s DB API.
  • add eta and phi float fields to give the physical position of each element.
  • rename module-eta-sub to m-e-s so we can redefine eta as above.
  • added PMTbox, MAPMT, and pixel fields in the PRS table.
  • renamed fiber to crate in the SMD and PRS tables.
