Update 07.10.2018 -- Run 9 embedding: match candidate qT distribution

Just for reference, here's the 'qT' distribution for all match candidates (i.e. all detector jets within acceptance with 'dR < Rjet' relative to the particle jet trying to be matched).

Update 07.10.2018 -- Run 9 embedding: our efficiency vs. h-jet efficiency

Before I had checked our efficiency compares to the corresponding efficiency from the h-jet analysis:

Update 07.09.2018 -- Run 9 embedding: response matrix before vs. after correcting reconstruction efficiency

Just to get an idea of how big the corrections are in the response matrix, I've compared the response matrix after fixing the reconstruction efficiency (which can be found in the 1st link) to the resp

Update 07.09.2018 -- Run 9 embedding: qT comparisons

After fixing the reconstruction efficiency (see link below), I was curious about how the 'qT' cuts affect the reconstruction efficiency and response matrix.  Here's a quick comparison:

Update 07.09.2018 -- Run 9 data: 1st stab at unfolding R = 0.3 charged pi0 recoil jets

Using the corrected reconstruction efficiency and response matrix (in the link below), I tried unfolding the R = 0.3 charged recoil jet (pi0 trigger) data.

Update 07.09.2018 -- Run 9 embedding: closure tests using corrected reconstruction efficiency

Previously, I had corrected the jet reconstruction efficiency and response matrix from the Run 9 dijet embedding sample:

Earlier I looked into our jet reconstruction efficiency:

Update 06.28.2018 -- Run 9 embedding: using phi vs. delta-phi and particle-lvl. triggers in matching

Yesterday, I investigated a bug in our matching code and the impact of a max 'qT' cut:

Update 06.27.2018 -- Run 9 embedding: applying a max qT cut

Previously, we had realized we weren't handling the jet-matching in the best manner.  The new (and old) matching algorithms are described in this post:

JetCorr Follow-Up [05.29.2018] -- STAR vs. PHENIX Purity

During my presentation to JetCorr on May 29th, 2018 (see link at the end of this post), some were curious about why it is that the PHENIX data on slide 9 are systematically higher and have smaller err
