Hello Conveners,

Here are the updated preliminary plots : https://drupal.star.bnl.gov/STAR/blog/rutikmani/Preliminary-Plots-3-GeV-Correlator

Do let me know if there are any additions.

Hi Rutik and All,

Here are my suggestions regarding to the three plots:
1) Plot 1: It is difficult to seperate statistical from systematic uncertainty. Let us try to use a light-yellow band to represent the systematic uncertainty;
2) Plot 2: add “STAR Preliminary” to the figure. This figure always confuses me: what is the width of the peso-rapidity bin used in Plot 1? What is the purpose to show this plot outside STAR experiment?
3) Plot 3: add “STAR Preliminary” to the figure. add “3 GeV Au+Au Collisions” to the plot.
    What do we learn from this figure? What is the width of the peso-rapidity bin used in Plot 1?

Please update these plots. If you have time, we can discuss over zoom. I will have other meetings soon. But we can discuss at about 3pm PT.

Best regards,
Nu
