W Simulations straight monte carlo

Request TypeEvent generator simulation
Description

Samples of various W and Z events are needed to make progress on the W cross section analysis for the APS meetings.  This is to be plain monte carlo simulations without embedding or filtering.   The request is detailed at

http://drupal.star.bnl.gov/STAR/blog/balewski/2009/dec/29/pp500-w-m-c-request-wo-embedding

Use latest  library for 2009 production  SL09g.  Choices below not up to date.

Total of 160k events is divided into different channels as documented in the above web site

W+ ->e+  10k events MSEL=12 , MDME1 206=2

W- -> e- 6k  events MSEL=12 , MDME1 206=3

W->tau nu (both signs) 10k events  MSEL=12 , MDME1 208=1

W jet 10k events MSEL 14 ! W+/- with jet production ISUB=16,31

Z -> e+e-  4k events  MSEL 11 ! gamma/Z0 production ISUB=1,96  MSTP 43=2 ! select just pure Z0 (not full gamma/Z0

Z-> all other channels 10k events

QCD pt>35 100k events

 

List of time stamps to be used for simulated events: every even calendar day starting from March 20, 2009 till April 12, 2009. Use fixed hour=1:00 pm. Split requested M-C events uniformly over days, the same # of events per day.
 

         TPC simulator: use TpcRS
         TPC gains as for 'low HV' working point during end of March 2009, pp500 run
         TPC status tables: actual dead padrow map for selected time stamp(s)  (TBD 10 time stamp values)
         TPC dEdX similar to real data calibration (low HV) with 10%accuracy
         TPC points corrections compatible with:"Corr4,OSpaceZ2,OGridLeak3D"
         BTOW, ETOW calibration - 'sim' (a.k.a. ideal) gains from DB
         BTOW, ETOW status table -  real ( drop dead towers according to time stamp, similar to TPC dead padrows)
