This document presents a detailed overview of the MDC4 performance in modeling pp collision events, highlighting goals, statistical analysis, and vertex finder efficiency. Key issues encountered, such as system crashes and corrupted data, are addressed alongside fixes applied. A total of 100,000 pp events were processed with considerations for leading particle reconstruction efficiency, signal-to-noise ratios, and track generation using PYTHIA 6.1. The resulting performance metrics indicate successful processing and analysis within the STAR framework.

pp-pileup in MDC4 • Goals • MDC4 statistics • vertex finder performance (ppLMV) • leading particle recon efficiency Jan Balewski, IUCF Star Analysis Meeting May 13, 2001 , BNL
MDC4 overview • Small problems of MDC4: • crash after ~400 eve fixed • SVT crash on empty eve fixed • root crash after 15,000 eve fixed • root version RCF vs. PDSF recompiled • NFS problem corrupted DST rerun • 100,000 pp events processed • PYTHI 6.1, minbias, nondiffractive • GSTAR with y2001 (actual) geometry • 8 pileup events added • root4star --> ppDST • ‘spin sorted’ -distributions for rLP • ResourcesMDC4=1 hour of STAR • CPU : 50 sec/event • total 1400 hours CPU • 1000 jobs with 100 events • 2 days on 100 CPU (real time) Thanks to Yuri, Lidia, Helen and all other for help
