sPHENIX HCal discussion

["Huan Zhong Huang" <huang AT physics.ucla.edu>]

Hi Blair/Anthony,

  Our students, Aditya from UCLA and Jingyu from Fudan, will work on EMCal calibration using e+e- from photon conversions. Zhongling has been working on photon conversion reconstruction using the TPC. Though Zhongling will leave us soon, we hope that Aditya and Jingyu will pick up the task.  I hope that our method will complement to the calibration method by other colleagues.

  I have to drive my kids to school in the morning and difficult to attend most phone meetings early in PDT. I hope that we will get Aditya and Jingyu up to speed on TPC tracking and photon conversion reconstruction soon.

  If other people are working on the task, we will be happy to collaborate. I am sorry that I have not been able to follow the overall calibration work  closely.

  Thanks. Regards,

  Huan

Subject: [Sphenix-emcal-l] Calo calibrations data-taking and run tasks

 

Dear all,

 

Attached is the calo calibrations data-taking and run oriented task list.   Let me and Anthony if you would like to sign up for any of these important tasks or have questions.    We will quickly go through things on Monday as well.  

 

Here is the introduction 

 

Introduction

Documented here are an important set of tasks related to the data-taking, commissioning, and important time-sensitive aspects of the reconstruction.  Timely progress and quick response on these tasks will be necessary and should be taken into account when signing up.    There are a subset of people who have been working very hard doing some or all of these things; the goal of this signup sheet is to have more clearly defined roles, spread out the workload, and allow for less expert people to develop skills in a specific area so they can make a concrete contribution to the calorimeter effort.   If  you are a relatively experienced sphenix analyzer but have mainly worked on MC-based or  physics-type analysis, this may be a good opportunity to get involved with ensuring the basic calorimeter data is of the highest quality,  which will make your life easier in the future.

 

Best,

Blair
