Also: thanks for the offer for help. Now really this is not much work, (provided we agree on a path forward): mostly moving around code that already exists in offline/packages/tpc/TpcSpaceChargeCorrection.cc.

Hi Hugo,

 

Thanks for the set of slides – here are some of my initial thoughts. BTW I am happy to help with this also, if it would be useful to divide it up. Just let me know if I can help.

 

I guess this would only account for static and average distortions if they are loaded at InitRun. Is my understanding correct? How would we handle the event-by-event fluctuations, would this be a histogram (or whatever structure) that gets updated in another module and could be stored as a part of these objects?

That is a good question. It is not clear to me how per-event maps will be handled anyway. On the fly ? in a first pass and saved into a file, as a Tree of histograms ?

For the former, I can imagine having the LoadDistortionCorrection module also have a process_event hook that take care of updating what's in the node tree on a per event basis. (that can then be accessed by the other modules)

For the latter it is only a matter of loading said tree of histograms in InitRun.

But yes, for now I was planing to only implement static+average, which is the only thing well defined (and currently implemeneted anyway), and see later how to evolve that to also include per event corrections. Does that make sense ?

For TpcDistortionCorrection, we discussed yesterday/today that in order to apply a correction to a cluster we will already need to know what track it is on and have the track projection from the silicon+TPOT. Maybe I am misunderstanding, but how would this interface with PHCASeeder? I would think we would need to also implement the machinery from the ClusterMover into this (which is maybe what you were intending).

My understanding is that the CA seeder uses 3D coordinates anyway. Inside the seeder, one would get the 2D + surface ID from the cluster, convert to 3D, apply the correction and use in the CA algorithm, instead of the uncorrected 3D position. Does that make sense ? In more details, I plan to have a DistortionCorrection::get_corrected_postion( TrkrCluster* ), that could be used inside the CASeeder code. (note that I have not yet looked into the CA Seeder code).

Hi Ross, Tony others

Unfortunately I have to leave early at today's TPC calibration meeting. I had a few slides to discuss what I would like to implement for "on demand" distortion correction, that can be used wherever necessary (e.g. CA seeding, cluster mover). Maybe we can discuss that offline instead ? The idea is to use similar code as is done with the ACTS surface map, and the local-to-global transformations.

Comments welcome

I’m triple booked at 11, so if the tracking discussion can wait until 11:10 I would appreciate it – otherwise go ahead and I’ll join when I can.

Hello Ross,

 

We discussed tracking workflow with distortions yesterday in the tracking meeting.

 

I posted a couple of slides on that discussion.

 

Cheers

Tony

Dear Distortions Folks,

This is a reminder that the distortion meeting will take place tomorrow at the usual coordinates and time, 11AM EST.  I believe there are updates to discuss on both the tracking integration and readout simulation fronts, and other updates are encouraged, as always.
