Dear Derek,
Thank you for your very comprehensive slides. I am sorry that I couldn't attend the meeting for discussion. I have a few questions about your slides and would appreciate your clarifications.
1) Slide 7, you showed nicely that most of the weird tracks lie at sector boundaries. Presumably these tracks will have less number of hits on track compared to others, yielding worse resolution. Shall we evaluate these tracking qualities (chi2, pT resolution) vs. nHits as well? If the tail in the pT distribution is just due to the worse resolution that yields due to few nHits, I would view this is not really an issue we should worry (but just feature?). And I may have missed your study before, do you have the momentum resolution vs. pT performance plot (maybe not only mean, but also the mean value)?
2) Slide 24, what is the unit on your X-axis? mm? And are the silicon hits required in tracks for producing these figures?
3) Slide 29, Is Delta_DCA the error of DCA? I know often people plot DCA / DCA_error and defined as chi2primary (used in KFParticle).
4) Slide 31/32/33, these distributions are peaked at very small values. I think it is because you have often finite values for pT, eta, phi. Is it better to plot pT_err / (pT_rec - pT_truth) or (pT_rec - pT_truth) / pT_err. In this way, if the tracking has a good estimation of the error, the distributions will be more like chi2 distributions too.
5) Slide 37/38, similarly, I am curious whether the silicon hits are used in tracking. Can we access the reconstructed hit information on track to tell whether it is the real MC hit coming from the associated MC track? This information can be helpful to determine the ghost hit rate, particularly on silicon MVTX detector.
6) Slide 54/55, I am wondering what is the difference compared to slide 37/38? Are these using tracking with silicon hits? I think then one would need different scales for the DCA axis to look into its distributions.
Thank you and Best Regards
/xin
