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.
-- here are the single-photon cone-clusters' asymmetries
Embedding request - dAu D0, HIJING
Embedding of D0 and anti-D0 into zerobias events + Hijing for efficiency corrections which include effects of vertex resolutions.
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
Update 06.05.2018 -- Run 9 pp: unfolding results (R = 0.3, charged pi0 jets)
Here I present the unfolded recoil jet spectrum using the new response matrix discussed in this post:
Update 06.05.2018 -- Run 9 embedding: (new) response matrix profile check
I realized yesterday that the profile on the response matrix I had shown to JetCorr was using the wrong axis:
Update 06.05.2018 -- Run 9 embedding: closure tests using new matching algorithm
After modifying the paticle-to-detector-level matching algorithm we had been using (see link below), I performed several closure tests.
Update 06.05.2018 -- Run 9 embedding: new matching algorithm
We recently discovered that I wasn't handling the detector-to-particle matching in the best manner. What tipped us off was the (very small) population of jets at large 'pTdetector' but small 'pT
Update 06.05.2018 -- Charge vs. Full Check in Pythia
To illustrate the difference between charged and full jets, I had been using a very old plot I had generated in Pythia. Here's a new one I made for the Annual User's Meeting which looks much nic
JetCorr Follow-Up [05.29.2018] -- TProfile Check On Response Matrix
During my presentation to JetCorr on May 29th, 2018 the profile of the Response Matrix shown raised some eyebrows (see slide 12 in the link below). It turned out I had drawn it with the errors b

Attached are the slides for my invited talk at the RHIC/AGS Annual Users Meeting during June 11th - June 15th, 2018. The talk is 20 + 10 min. long.
JetCorr Follow-Up [05.29.2018] -- RFF and FF Closure Tests Using RFF+FF Response
Yesterday, I redid 3 closure tests using my corrected unfolding code:
JetCorr Follow-Up [05.29.2018] -- RFF and FF Closure Tests (And Bug Fix)
During the weekly JetCorr meeting on May 29th, 2018, it was suggested to perform a closure test using a RFF (FF) response to unfold the detector-level FF (RFF) jet spectrum. Slide 13 of the pres

JetCorr Follow-Up [05.22.2018] -- Run 12 vs. Run 9 Embedding
It was pointed out during my presentation to JetCorr on May 22nd, 2018 that while the Run 9 embedding and Run 9 data recoil jet (R = 0.3, charged) 'pT' distributions fall on top of each other, t
JetCorr Follow-Up [05.22.2018] -- Restricting EtTrg To PtParton Bin
While the various trigger, track, and tower distributions from the Run 9 dijet embedding agree well with our Run 9 pi0-triggered data, there's a significant excess in the embedding for towers with a r
