ECCE Public Announcements

["Wenliang (Bill) Li" <billlee AT jlab.org>]

Dear all,

This email will provide a timeline regarding the complication and 
internal review of the Exclusive, Diffractive & Tagging summary paper.
Here we would like to thank the review team for leading the internal 
group review: G. Huber, Z. Papandreou, J. Roche, A. Schmidt,

The plan is as the following:
By tomorrow (May 4) at 10:00 am EDT, Sections 1, 2, and 4 (except 4.6) 
will be ready for the internal group review.
By Monday (May 9) at 10:00 am EDT, Sections 3, 4.6, and 6 will be ready 
for the internal group review.
Monday (May 9), we will present our paper at the ECCE bi-weekly meeting 
to the consortium.
Friday (May 13), the paper will be ready for comments from the consortium.

Please let us if you have any suggestions or comments on this plan.

Greatly appreciate the individuals who worked hard on polishing the 
studies, we would like to emphasize the importance of the common 
standard on how we present our plots.

For important key figures, we must polish them to the following standard:
https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://nbviewer.org/github/ECCE-EIC/tutorials/blob/master/ECCEStyle/ECCEStyle-Python.ipynb__;!!P4SdNyxKAPE!BuCNY60SEjFpcX2Y3QlnNfQsPD7OWsvnHcDuj3fAKqFLVVR6AEnObGJ9a4qeH06pzmjeMyPWDSNzLixBYodyFHwWSXQjZw$ 

We don't want to ask everyone to use the same template, please preserve 
a few common features when generating the key plot which includes: the 
ECCE label, scattering configuration, and readable axis labels.

Please consider using the following style script to standardize the font 
or configuration (download them to your local directory):
https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ECCE-EIC/macros/master/common/ECCEStyle.C__;!!P4SdNyxKAPE!BuCNY60SEjFpcX2Y3QlnNfQsPD7OWsvnHcDuj3fAKqFLVVR6AEnObGJ9a4qeH06pzmjeMyPWDSNzLixBYodyFHwyT8XGEw$ 
https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ECCE-EIC/macros/master/common/ECCEStyle.h__;!!P4SdNyxKAPE!BuCNY60SEjFpcX2Y3QlnNfQsPD7OWsvnHcDuj3fAKqFLVVR6AEnObGJ9a4qeH06pzmjeMyPWDSNzLixBYodyFHzrPkKuoA$ 

To use them, please you can use the following root macro command to 
trigger the style:

    gInterpreter->Declare("""#include \"ECCEStyle.C\"""");
    gInterpreter->ProcessLine("SetECCEStyle()");

The ECCE label can be generated with the following TLegend example:

    auto legend1 = new TLegend(.35,.75,.65,.93);
    gStyle->SetLegendBorderSize(0);
    legend1->AddEntry("","#it{#bf{ECCE}} Simulation","");
    legend1->AddEntry("","e+p 18+275 GeV","");

For the intermediary plots, please remove the overhead labels and reduce 
the white space on the plot. Please also double-check the bin sizes: 
choppy-looking plots should be re-binned to show a smoother shape.

We would like to ask the interviewer to pay special attention to 
figure/plot quality.

Finally, the WG has decided on the author list strategy (by vote). Our 
summary paper will first list all students and postdocs in alphabetical 
order, followed by all members of the WG in alphabetical order, then the 
rest of the consortium in alphabetical order.

Many thanks
Bill on behalf of Exclusive, Diff & Tagg WG
