AL for W+, W- from SL09g, Run 9, 1.46M events
STAR W+ & W- have been extracted from pp500 data from run 9, SL09g production, with the W-algo ver B5.2 on January 21, 2010.
Correcting for kicked bunches in SBB calculation
A problem that has been showing up in the luminosity tables recently is that the ratio of single beam background (SBB) events to total BHT3 events is surprisingly high, in some cases ~50%.

1) News
2) High-z radiation due to produced particles interactions with
beam pipe. We need an update from Purdue (unless I missed it)
3) Data production for CD1 homework. We agreed on two sets
a) Thin: ~10Kevents with ~20 D0s/event, power-law and
30 L_c/event flat-pt
20(?) D_s via the Phi channel
b) Thick: ~10Kevents with same D0s and ~30 L_c/event flat-pt
4) Brief report on Nantes microVertex workshop. Some

TOF HV standby currents
Hi All,
Geary asked me to take a look at the HV currents when TOF is in standby mode (i.e. HV = 5000 instead of 7000V).

I. Agenda:
1) Run10 status: Bill
2) Management issues: Nu
3) Scientific committee for the next Coll. Mtg: Nu
4) TBD
*--===================================================================--*
II. Brief Summary and/or Action Items:
0) Attendency: Flemming, Bedanga, Jamie, Bill, Olga, Bernd, Nu
1) Bill will update the collabration with run10 status every other week // Working with Jerome, Olga will start the preparation for next shift sign up.
Plan with 27 week run, start on Dec. 1. Sign up starts mid- or late Feb. in order to allow people preparing travel. // Bill (operation) will prepare the
TPC sector insertion tooling, Flemming will preppare the follow up items at the last TPC view.
2) Simulations for upgrade projects should be enhanced. Nu will talk to related people.
3) Coll. Mtg. Scientific program committee chair: Bedanga. // Theme: dAu cold nuclear matter effect and RHIC BES
4) Will discuss more on the embedding issues when relevant people are back
n) Brief aummary of the Convener Lunch Meeting at the Austin Analysis Meeting:
(I) Concerns/issues from conveners:
1) Gang: (a) publication standard, Upsilon signal, 3sigma is enough? Be careful on the description.Bernd will take a look at the manuscript and let us know of his view; (b) HF stuck in embedding, 1st priority item, does not work. Can we use computing resources from outside STAR? The answer is always YES, provided careful QA implemented and no extra burdun on existing teams.
2) Lijuan: status about embeeding helpers? Will be followed up at the PWGc
3) Wlodek: LVP news release
(II) Data analysis status
Spin PWG: 500 production done, 200 GeV still working on TPC calibration, close to the production;
HF PWG: working on the 500 GeV pp NPE ;
JetCorr PWG: will analyze data from jetpatch triggered result;
LFSpectra PWG: needs 500GeV MB, preliminary results analyzed by a ustc student. Suggestion: document the MB files;
Pp2pp: in few weeks will have microDST.
2) Data status: Run8: transverse pp200 GeV, dAu
Spin PWG: FMS separate production, di-jet kt, may need TPC recalibration. Only HI reference pp data.
LFSpectra PWG: strange hadron analysis, pi/K/p low, to high pt. Software group has not solved the h+/h- ratios vs. pt and rapidity problem. The
problem is not seen in Run9. Low pt K0, Lambda, phi yields higher than Run3 results. Seems problem in efficiency.
HF PWG: no D0/charged Ds, reconstructed, inconsistent with Run3.
3) Data status: Run7: Au+Au at 200 GeV
LFSpectra PWG: no efficiencies; should make the embedding request. Strong D+ signal, no D-
BulkCorr PWG: v2 analysis. Ka/pion, dEdx problem. Low q_inv seen an unusual peak in balance function analysis. In sigma_dy different from
earlier Runs.
JetCorr PWG: jet analysis, di-hadron. Unsusal struction in 2-D eta correlation function. Charge dependence.
(III) Run10 QA: All PWGs is encouraged to participate in the QA in run10. PWGC meeting will discuss the results.
