EmcCalPi0 Overview • historical overview • current work • planning
Why calibrate with pi0s? • know the mass • plentiful • produce photons in a wide range of energies • useful for physics • want to optimize resolution, linearity of calorimeter
Enrico Maly, ECP calibrations • both Ecor = E*f(E,theta) where f() is polynomial in ln(E) + polynomial in cos(theta) + ln(E)cos(theta) term • Enrico has 4 lnE coefficients, 2 cos(theta), 0 ln*cos • factorizable -> can extract theta terms for EmcCalPi0 • EmcCalPi0 has 3 lnE coeffs, 0 cos, 0 ln*cos • EmcCalPi0 is a rolling calibration - updates after 50k if change needed • runs on standard (unbeamspot corrected) lists • extracts constants with calculation, not fit (won't crash) • Enrico runs on blocks of collections (w/b.s.), does a fit
How EmcCalPi0 works • runs in Prompt Calibration farms • fills rolling histograms in ln(m(gg)/m(p)) • analytically calculates dependence of peak on parameters • produces A0, then A1, then A2 • updates constants if significant • settles • can have hysteresis - remembers start condition • has produced 200 sets of constants for current data set
Constants not yet useful Early runs are not settled due to multiple restarts of PC, multiple PCs
EmcCalPi0 recently • investigating run period around beam spot shift • ran EmcCalPi0 offline on small run blocks • allowed constants to settle • 0th order term changes at shift boundary • apply constants to selection in EScale package • compare to EScale using standard correction • with and without beamspot correction • looked at one energy bin • EmcCalPi0 compensates for bs - but m = 134 MeV
But... • EScale package not suited for studying multiple calibrations, theta dependence • selection criteria seem to affect apparent linearity • So have made some ntuples with the relevant EMC (and DCH) info to do offline studies • as of yesterday
Cubic term in fit? • EmcCalPi0 is not able to do a cubic fit for technical reasons (math is too hard, for one) • Enrico's constants have one • Steal it? ditto for theta terms?
Plans • would like to try calibrating on beamspot-corrected lists • include some info from Maly calib. • improve selection • try to show resolution improvement using offline calibration • then import new constants into db • hopefully use this experience to implement improved rolling calibration
