Small Simulation Details

I have created a small simulation sample to help determine my future simulation needs.

Realtime tuning of rotators at STAR for run-11

A current scan was made for the Yellow and Blue beam spin rotators at STAR during fill 15425 (April 8-9, 2011) in preparation for longitudinal running.

Criteria for good primary vertices for Offline QA

 In Offline QA at the moment, we restrict QA of tracks to those evens whose highest-ranked primary vertex passes two criteria:

Nfit vs. embedded mult

Following the RT ticket 2106 post from 2011-04-08 12:11:09 by Mustafa, I collected the relevant plots from 4 datasets:

I repeated the exercise of matching tracks with new and old errors, as done in my previous blog post, but this t

Systematic Errors in the Photon Signal Extraction

 In order to fully extract the prompt photon signal from the overwhelming QCD background, the photon analysis proceeds in two major steps.
