Hi all,

Since I haven't heard anything about these, should I go ahead and replace the current CDR plots with these? Since the CDR is supposed to be frozen by the end of the month that gives me a few days to add them and adjust the text associated with the plots.

Hi all,

Sorry to reply to my own email, but after discussion with Jin I implemented a tower geometry cut such that the mean energy per tower is only for the 2D projective towers; therefore, it is a direct comparison to what is currently in the CDR (and I guess is from the pCDR a while ago). The mean tower energy in 0-4 fm HIJING events is roughly 34 MeV, and the 3x3 tower sum is roughly 321 MeV. Not substantially different than what I sent previously, and also not substantially different from what is in the pCDR; however, it is a little less than these values. I can make these plots look nicer if we agree that they should replace those in the current draft of the CDR.

Hi EMCalers,

Per the discussion from the EMCal meeting on Tuesday, I have generated some new simulation plots with the existing single particle simulations and the most recent HIJING backgrounds that the jet structure topical group is also using for their jet studies. I have attached some slides which document some results for the CDR that we can now say definitely include the tilted geometry of the EMCal. In particular, these plots can be compared to the existing figures 4.21-4.23 of the current CDR. 

Craig specifically requested that we try and replace figure 4.17 of the CDR with the 2016 test beam data. My next task is to try and run some test beam simulations and see if I can overlay the simulation data on top of the 2016 publication data. 

Let me know if you have any comments on the current work,

Joe Osborn
