13 MIP algo, ver=1.1 (example of towers)

Under:

This is an illustration of improvement of MIP finding efficiency if ADC gates are set on BPRS & BTOW at the places matched to actual gains instead of  fixed 'ideal' location.

2005 BTOW QA

I looked at the QA that Murad did over the BTOW looking for hot towers for 2005: http://cyclotron.tamu.edu/star/2005Jets/QA/hotTowers/.

 This is still work in progress, same algo as on previous post.

Handling stuck 1-second RICH scalers

 I have previously noted instances of "stuck" 1-second RICH scaler readings in Run 8 data [»

Fully Corrected Yields

 Ok, now we're cooking.  Most of the ingredients are in place.

Reconstruction and Trigger Efficiency Correction Factor

 Now that I have my raw pion spectrum (see here) I need to proceed

Jigsaw Inv Mass Plots (final)

 As noted here and here, the pion peak is difficult to model using single-particle MC.  In single particle studies, the pion inv mass peak is reconstructed to narrow.
