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:

Update 07.05.2018 -- Run 9 embedding: corrected reconstruction efficiency

Previously, I had looked into the effect of requiring a trigger at the particle-level on our jet reconstruction efficiency:

Update 06.28.2018 -- Run 9 embedding: jet reconstruction efficiency fit

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

Abstract:

Single Cluster and Jettier Cluster A_LL Cross-Check for Runs 12 and 13

A referee report has asked if we looked at single-cluster events and jettier events.

Update 06.08.2018 -- Run 9 embedding: jet energy resolution check

It was requested in the last JetCorr meeting (June 5th, 2018) to compare the Jet Energy Resolution (JER) of my response matrix to the one from the hadron-jet paper.  As a first comparison, below
