Minutes
- Vernier scan analysis, trying to reconcile fast and vernier cross sections through z dependence - Ross
Understanding of discrepancy between ZDC vs. BHT3 may require a trip to BNL, but for next week we should expect 1st estimation of W Xsection from run 9 data with detailed table of all systematic errors. - Update on Transverse Mass Reconstruction - Justin blog
After code fix rec transverse mass for M-C (fig 5) and data (fig 7) look more alike
Fig 6 shows prospects of reco longitudinal momentum for Ws , today for M-C, will be tried w/ run 9 data soon - AL for W-> di-jet, P.Nadolski predictions for LP^2 FOM=80/pb : PDF page 30
UA2: L=0.7/pb, sqrt(s)=630 GeV, p+pbar : see W yield on PDF page 17.
Q: compare seen # of Ws for UA2 vs. expectation for STAR run 9. - Bernd - Latex paper new deadline : Monday, October 26 for Jan, Scott,Ross, Bernd
- Jan - update on deploying STAR software on Amazon Compute Cloud (EC2) , first bill
- Postponed for next week
- TPC - status of calibration
- TPC - status of handling of deconvoluted hits by Sti
- PPV - understanding of missing CMB tracks
- BTOW absolute calibration: mip-less & slop-less towers
- Announcements
