X>1 Current Tasks

Data Calibrations Checks

Pass-4 write-up and overview of changes

  • Pass-4 implements default pedestals, which recover a significant number of X>1 events. This was straight forward, so everything should be set up correctly
    • PS was high.
    • Data rate was quite high.
    • New ADC-TDC offset sent to each detector, (starttime-pulsetime-offset) -> New timing windows (Done)
  • Pass-4 reduce tof_tolerance value from 100 to 5 (ns)
    • This was a significant problem with F2 data analysis. We need to look at the new hodo starttime histograms and see if there are any patterns / trends / differences. I haven't looked at them yet.

[New Hodo Histo Diagnostics] [Changes other Detectors]

Beam in hcana

  • Pointing Surveys use inconsistent language
    • I just don't have a good imagination for the coordinates yet (2 years later..)
      • Go sit under the pivot with a piece of paper and pencil
  • HARP scan fits are not those reported -> Fits used with no documentation / fit pannel
    • I am always confused by the change of coordinates between different systems.
    • Leads to some differences in gbeam.param values

Review hallc_replay_XEM

  • In progress (check_master branch).
    • Get up and running with the XEM replay. Some small difference in directory structures compared to f2xem and hallc_replay_f2xem (yes, two others!)
    • Added updated hallc_replay calibration scripts.

Calorimeter still makes no sense for X>1

Excess events in cryo targs (X>1, X>2)

Check electronic livetime model

Monte-Carlo Work

Optics and Acceptance

Check Miss-pointing

XEM model / Externals

Improve geometry of cryo cells

Iterate model parameters

Data to MC Ratios / Cross-sections

Binning cross-section in X

Statistical Error propagation

Systematic Errors
