sPHENIX Event Plane Detector discussion

[Ron Belmont <belmonrj AT gmail.com>]

Hi JaeBeom,

Very nice abstract!  I have a few small comments.

Cheers,

Ron

“to provide precision resolution of the event plane as well as the centrality calibration” reads a little funny to me, I think it would be better as "provide event plane determination with high resolution as well as centrality determination” or something like that.

"Also, the results will be discussed in terms of physics measurements that can be accessed based on the current achievements.”  I think this would be better as “Implications for potential physics measurements will be discussed.”

Dear all, 

Here is the proposed abstract for QM 2023. 

Please let me know for any comments or questions. 

Best,

Title : First performance results of the sPHENIX Event Plane Detector 

Abstract : 

The sPHENIX detector is designed to study fundamental properties of the quark-gluon plasma created in heavy ion collisions at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider at Brookhaven National Laboratory. The sPHENIX Event Plane Detector (sEPD) is constructed both in the forward and backward rapidity region with the coverage of 2.1<|eta|<4.9. The essential role of the sEPD is to provide precision resolution of the event plane as well as the centrality calibration in Au+Au collisions. This poster will discuss the first performance results of the sEPD, covering cosmic tests of the sectors and calibration results of the first sPHENIX run. Also, the results will be discussed in terms of physics measurements that can be accessed based on the current achievements.
