The STAR experiment

Hi, we are going to hold a special (unusual day/time) HFT software meeting this

Thursday at 2:30pm to talk about HFT modeling/VMC testing.

The dAu production is done.

Sooraj did some initial QA,

[Xin's initial thoughts]
A few distributions I don't quite understand. (DCA_XY looks not so good, HFT ratio is a bit low). 

Since there are discussions of reproducing the dataset at Cori soon (MTD issue).
We need to make sure the HFT is absolutely good in the production.
...
I think the DCA_XY resolution might be due to the vertex finder options.
I am producing some test samples to verify this.

For the HFT ratio, the suspect would be the pileup. There is already a TOFMatch requirement in the denominator, but not sure since the pileup is very huge, the random match probability is not small.
To study this, we can look at this ratio vs. luminosity. Or maybe using further tighter cuts, requiring both TOF and BTOW matches (random match in both TOF and BTOW would be much smaller...), but we probably don't have statistics for low pT due to the BTOW efficiency.
