Error Analysis Monte Carlo Technique 02 October 2013
Statistical Error – No Background • Calculate the yield • Allow for statistical fluctuations: • Unfold cross section • Repeat for 1000 tries yi= gRandom->Gaus( yi, Sqrt(yi) )
Statistical Error – With Background • Calculate the yield • Calculate the background yield from 18O • Allow for statistical fluctuations: • Unfold cross section • Repeat for 1000 tries yi= gRandom->Gaus( yi, Sqrt(yi+2yibg) )
Absolute Beam Energy • Calculate the Nij for each nominal beam energy, Ei (since we will use GEANT4) • Allow for absolute beam energy to change by: • Calculate the yield • Unfold cross section • Repeat for 1000 tries Ei= Ei* gRandom->Gaus(1, 0.001 )
Other Absolute Systematic Errors • Calculate the Nij for each nominal beam energy, Ei (since we will use GEANT4) • Allow for absolute beam energy to change by: • Calculate the yield • Include other absolute systematic errors: • Unfold cross section • Repeat for 1000 tries Ei= Ei* gRandom->Gaus(1, 0.001 ) Nij= Nij* gRandom->Gaus(1, δφ/φ ) yi= yi* gRandom->Gaus(1, Sqrt( (δI/I)2+ (δR/R)2+ (δT/T)2+ ε2 )
Relative Beam Energy • Calculate the Nij for each nominal beam energy, Ei (since we will use GEANT4) • Allow for absolute beam energy 7.8 MeV to change by: • Higher energies has samerelative error, • Calculate the yield • Unfold cross section • Repeat for 1000 tries E0 = 7.8 * gRandom->Gaus(1, 0.001 ) Ei= E0 + iΔ Now, we have to worry about beam stability (RF stability). Need injector FFB system to maintain relative beam stability
Other Relative Systematic Errors • Calculate the Nij for each nominal beam energy, Ei (since we will use GEANT4) • Allow for absolute beam energy 7.8 MeV to change by: • Higher energies has samerelative error, • Calculate the yield • Include other relative systematic errors: • Unfold cross section • Repeat for 1000 tries E0 = 7.8 * gRandom->Gaus(1, 0.001 ) Ei= E0 + iΔ N= N* gRandom->Gaus(1, δφ/φ ) y = y * gRandom->Gaus(1, Sqrt( (δI/I)2+ (δR/R)2+ (δT/T)2+ ε2 )
