Hi Nick and Nathan,

Thanks for the nice work over the summer continuing to benchmark TopoCluster performance. 

Please consider a few comments from me: 

If you wanted a nice picture of a 3-D topoCluster, you could grab a still frame from: https://www.phenix.bnl.gov/phenix/WWW/publish/dvp/sPHENIX-20GeV-pion-topoCluster-animate.gif 

You describe the underlying simulations (single particles or Pythia events) only in the 3rd column, but already show us results in the second column. Better to switch the order of the two columns? 

For the energy matching plot, do you want to comment that this is after a calibration? (and for single particle events, right?)

For the energy resolution plots, the captions are a bit funny. I don’t think you have to say these are the projected 2-D slices of something unless you’re going to show us those 2-D distributions.

For the energy resolution in p+p events, you include that the resolution is “under 30%”, but that’s not really true until quite high E_truth. 

You might define what particle “isolation” is used in the PYTHIA simulation.

“Tested the accuracy of the H/E cut” - better to characterize as an “efficiency”? (i.e. 97.8% of the topoClusters passed? not completely clear to me)

Hi all,

I apologize for the very late notice, we found out on Monday that posters for DNP need to be uploaded by 5 PM Eastern on Friday. I have attached my student's poster. Any feedback is most welcome.

Thanks,

Nathan
