Post-run tasks

  • Verify standard.kinematics for HMS and SHMS
    • Check angle pictures in CODA file
    • Verify magnet settings
  • Check run lists against standard.kinematics and run sheets (already done?)
  • Small replay updates for "pass0"
    • Add/verify that momenta and angles used in the analysis are written to report files (including any offsets)
    • Add pointing offsets used to report files
    • Add more stuff to epics tree (helium target temperatures and pressures)
    • Verify correct BPM calibration in replay (Dave G)
    • Use high-momentum HMS matrix element files where appropriate (there are least 2 - Jacob might have more by now)
  • Calibrations
    • BCM calibrations
    • Reference time cuts
    • Timing window cuts
    • Cherenkov calibrations (done? check online calibrations)
    • Calorimeter calibrations
    • TOF
    • Drift distances
    • After calibrations, perform surveys for 1st replay (number PE, calorimeter resolution, track residuals)
  • Determine kinematic offsets
    • Single arm elastic
    • Heep
  • Target boiling analysis
    • Scalers
    • Tracks
  • Backgrounds
    • Pion backgrounds
    • Charge symmetric backgrounds
  • Efficiencies
    • Determine/check efficiencies for all PID detectors
    • Trigger efficiency (include 3/4 efficiency)
    • EDTM - parameterize electronic dead time using EDTM + Computer dead time? Use EDTM run-by-run?
  • Data MC comparisons
    • Generate normalized yields with all corrections
    • Generate MC yields using mc_single_arm + radiated cross section model
    • Generate RC tables using externals_all
    • Compare data/MC - iterate model as needed
