sPHENIX HCal discussion

["Sickles, Anne M" <sickles AT illinois.edu>]

Hi all,

Please find the minutes of the meeting below and on indico:

Anthony & the EMCal position dependent correction

• position dependent correction was used in both test beam papers to correct for reduced light collection efficiency near the tower/block boundaries

• in the test beam, this correction was derived using both the hodoscope and the cluster information only

current version of the correction only derived within |eta| < 0.3 and applied to higher rapidities

• Illinois group will extend this to higher rapidity
• we will investigate the effect of this on the sector boundaries

will have to derive these constants from real data as well due to the differences between the data but the simulation based version is a good 0th order version of the calibration
