room 3-192 Physics, BNL, at 13:00 (GMT), duration : 00:00

 HFT pre-dry run. 

The meeting will have a number of talks that matches those for the CD-1 review of the HFT project. 

In addition there will be discussion on outstanding issues surrounding CDR, other document, cost and schedule.

A real dry-run will be scheduled in about one month; and the review likely in the week of November 9.

Linearity Check in fixed ecalgeo.g, take II

Updated on Thu, 2009-08-20 14:06. Originally created by jwebb on 2009-08-20 10:12.
Abstract:  The EEMC geometry (ecalgeo.g) has been modified to remove a bug which resulted in approximately 1 radiation length of lead being inserted at the shower-maximum depth.  In this blog entry, the response of the modified geometry to various particles is determined over a range in energy from 0.5 to 200 GeV.  For photons we find that the linearity of the simulated EEMC sampling fraction is good to better than 1% over the range of energies studied.  Electrons above 2 GeV and neutral pions above 7 GeV exhibit similar linearities.
