sPHENIX HCal discussion

[woody <woody AT bnl.gov>]

Hi Abhisek,
   I agree with John and that it only makes sense to show the e/pi ratio for the EMCAL + HCAL (inner + outer) combined.

Cheers,
Craig

Hi Anne, Abhisek:

    One quick addition -

    The plot listed below is for the HCAL *only*. For Anne's talk I think what the audience will be most interested in is the measured e/pi for the *full* calorimeter (EMCal + HCAL). Abhisek, can you make this plot for Anne, without a simulation curve and with "sPHENIX Preliminary".

Hi Abhisek,

I talked to John L, John H, and Jin and we’d like to show the e / pi ratio without the simulation on Tuesday.  Can you update the plot?

Best,

Anne

Hello HCALers,

   Anne's IEEE talk is next week. So I have added "sPHENIX preliminary" label to HCAL plots for everyone to review. Please let me know if you have comments.

Please refer to testbeam paper for analysis details. Few comments:

1/ The nonlinearity observed in HCAL is a preamp saturation effect. A suggestion during the HCAL workfest was to remove the saturation points and rerun the analysis to improve the linearity. We made a new production but results were same. I think the fitting changes were not included. Jin is looking more into it. We will likely have one more new production.

2/ I intentionally did not add e/pi plot for sPHENIX configuration. That needs more internal discussion. 

Please let me know if you have any comments.

Cheers,

Abhisek
