FHC pythia mini_bias simulation study 1

   For the Zoffset of the FHC is 948cm, I studied the events of the Lambda generated in the 2M pythia mini_bias simulation runs.

code agrees with Angelika for ZDC scaler

My vernier scan analysis code is in pretty much exact agreement with Angelika's, at least for the ZDC scaler cross section:

           Phone Bridge: +1 626 395 2112 (CA) / +1 631 344 6100 (NY) // ID: 39499 // Password: 0952

   Time:  11 AM - 12 PM EDT

 * --===================================================================--*

  Agenda:

1) Run10 Priorities - Bedanga

2) NPe-hadron correlation analysis - Bedanga / Jamie

3) TBD

* --====================================================================--*

               Brief Summary:

  0) Attendency: Olga, Jamie, Bedanga, Flemming, Nu

  1) Upgrade proposal review panel members: Flemming will contact PAs and proposed chairs to start the process.

  2) Run10 priorities: start with 200 or 62 GeV? Nu will discuss with colleagues from PHENIX and Steve. // Olga will prepare the list of PC for sign up next Monday. // Today, Olga will send out a final announcement regarding the sign up, including the rough run plan.

  3) e-h correlation analysis: According to NPE task force, the values of the NPe at high pT (>3 GeV) have moved down quite a bit. If there is no according change in AA collisions, the value of RAA will change. If we pub. the paper, we in fact endorse other resutls. On the other hand, we do not understand the results yet: each year, run3, run5, run6, and run8, the results are different.

Request the document the understanding of the difference between run3, run5, run6, and run8.

 4) BES long document: not refereed journal, only to arXiv, preliminary results could be included with the permission from PWGs. Nu will talk t Helen.  

  Notes:

   1) STAR TPC Review (key= star2009),  June 4,5, BNL. Ron Settler (chair). Review report.

   2) NPE Committee, H. Huang (chair) 

   3) STAR TOF Close Out Review, Aug. 10-11. Review report and The Plan.

   4) STAR FMS Review agenda, Sept. 1-2, BNL, P. Jacobs (chair). Review report

              

               Future Meetings:

    1) DNP 2009, Oct. 13 - 17, Waikoloa

    2) STAR-DoE HFT CD-1 review, postpond to Nov. 12-13, BNL

    3) STAR Analysis Meeting, Jan. 11-15, 2010, UT Austin

    4) APS April meeting, Feb. 13-17, 2010, Washongton DC. (abstract deadline: Oct. 23, 2009 )
