STAR Correlations and Fluctuations PWG

[Jinjin Pan <jinjin.pan AT wayne.edu>]

Hi Gary,

Thanks for the interesting proposal.

As we discussed earlier in CF PWG meetings and at the Scott Pratt's Balance Function workshop, your balance function results have not been corrected for efficiency, which results in significantly smaller balance function values than they should be. In addition, your BF results are significantly smaller compared with the analysis by Launa and Nandita and my analysis.

So my major comment would be that the efficiency needs to be corrected properly in your analysis so that the BF magnitude will be correct before going to publication. And it would be nice that we could have a consistency between the three analyses.

Thanks and best regards,
Jin

Hanna, Xiaofeng, and CF PWG:

I would like to present the paper proposal for our paper "Using Balance Functions in Au+Au Collisions at 200 GeV to Determine the Diffusivity of Light Quarks in the QGP” at the next CF PWG meeting.

You can find the presentation at the following link:

Thanks.
