Update 05.03.2019 -- Run 9 pp: Jet Comparisons Using SAME Tracking Efficiency Between Pythia8 and Pythia6

[Recorded on 05.14.2019] Now, we finally determined that the detector response differs between our standalone Pythia8 simulation and the official STAR Run 9 Pythia6 simulation:

Update 04.24.2019 -- Run 9 pp: CORRECT Jet Comparisons Between Pythia6 and Pythia8

[Recorded on 05.14.2019] Following up from last time:

Update 04.23.2019 -- Run 9 pp: Misc. Jet Comparisons Between Pythia6 and Pythia8

[Recorded on 05.14.2019] A few more plots of jet comparisons.

Update 04.18.2019 -- Run 9 pp: CORRECT Pythia6 Vs. Pythia8 Track Comparisons, Particle-To-Detector Ratios

[Recorded on 05.14.2019] Last time around, I forgot to remove the neutral particles from the Pythia8 particle-level track distributions:

[Recorded on 05.14.2019] Continuing on with the Pythia6 and Pythia8 track comparisons... Here's the last iteration:

Update 04.15.2019 -- Efficiency Sanity Check

[Recorded on 05.14.2019] This was a sanity check to make sure that efficiency that I calculated from Pythia6 and gave to Pythia8 is the same as the efficiency I get from Pythia8 (afte

Update 04.12.2019 -- Run 9 pp: Still More (and Better) Track Comparisons Between Pythia6 and Pythia8

[Recorded on 05.14.2019] This is a re-do of the comparisons here:

[Recorded on 05.14.2019] It's probably wise to also add my slides for our regular(ish) Gamma-Jet meetings to the blog, so here are the slides for the meeting that happened on 03.15.2019.
