Dear Colleagues

We are going to have a DSC meeting on Friday at 1000h. Here's the meeting link:

https://osu.zoom.us/j/99011057540?pwd=QmNhTDBrNmMyckdWYnJqcmFLMHl5QT09

This time a group from University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign will be joining our effort, so at the beginning we will have a chance to make an introduction.

Following up on our previous meeting we can finalize the work plan and discuss how to distribute the tasks below.

1. Make sure track-cluster matching works.

2. Do a realistic jet study with neutrals and track-cluster matching, subtracting charged track energy from clusters. Use full DIS events from simulation campaign.

3. Do a 2-track resolution study. Here we have 2 options:

 a) Use realistic DIS events from simulation campaign. Select neutron clusters and check the distance from other track projections or clusters. Study eta/radial dependence, phi-integrated.

 b) Do a 2 track simulation and reconstruction. Check the distance of clusters vs. eta/radius and the 2 particle separation.

4. Study muon ID efficiency and purity in DIS events with vector mesons produced. Look for MIP tracks with MIP energy deposits in EMcal and HCal. (No manpower here!)

5. The above steps should determine the optimal tile size. The tile performance will be tested at OSU with cosmic rays (this is ongoing). Compare it to optical photon transport simulation. This will determine the technology choice.

These are the most important tasks on our way towards TDR preparation. Let me know if you are interested in contributing to any of the above.

Best regards, Leszek
