The ESMD pedestal status check

  With one run in pp run08 data, I check the strip pedestal value VS the mudst file time.

BSMD Calibration: More on the M Shape

Figure 1: Eta distribution of pp500 tracks in momentum bins.  Each new color means that a cut has been added: red is no cuts, green adds tower zero-suppression, yellow adds the dE/dx

BHT3coin vs BHT3

 In my last post I showed the ratio of BHT3coin and dijet triggers, revealing a discepancy in the middle of the run.  The plot below shows the BHT3coin/BHT3 ratio over the same span.

Comparison of QCD Background Shape with 2 Methods of Z Background Subtraction

Justin Stevens explored a number of different schemes aimed at rejecting Z background from the data-driven QCD sample used to estimate a shape for the QCD background (
