Upsilon in p+p 2009

Request TypeStandard Embedding request (particle in real events)
Description
Upsilon embedding request for pp2009:

Description
-----------

Contact: Matt Cervantes
Upsilon embedding in 2009 pp

Generator: Upsilon flat in pt
Number of events: 30k for each Upsilon state (1S, 2S, 3S)

Description/Instructions:

Generate 3 separate datasets corresponding to each of the Upsilon
states (1S, 2S, and 3S) each of 30k events.

Generate exactly 1 Upsilon per event with the following phase space:

1. Flat in pT from 0 to 10 GeV/c
2. Flat in y from -2.0 to +2.0
3. Upsilon -> e+ e- decay channel only, in GSTAR

GSTAR run:

Geometry: Most current year 2009 geometry
Hadronic interactions: on
Field: 0.5 T

Embedding:

Embed Upsilon into 2009 p+p st_upsilon event at sqrt(s)=200 GeV.

Reconstruction:

TPC simulator: trs

"J/Psi and Charm at STAR"

 

BHT3coin vs dijets resolved

 Okay, I think I have the tie broken, finally:

FMS meeting 20100510 Vertex

BBc Vertex

 

Let's take a quick look at what we expect from including the BBc vertex.

IO testing, SSD versus SAS

The expected SSD performances are added below for guidance.

FMS simulation (cont.)

  Last time I saw that as a function of photon's distance from the beam line, reconstructed photon position is pushed further away from the beam.
