STAR Flow, Chirality and Vorticity PWG

["Huan Zhong Huang" <huang AT physics.ucla.edu>]

Hi Haojie,

  Thanks. That is very helpful.

  I do not know the details of quantities used in your figures. In some figures Ntrk is used, and some <RefMult> is used. The numbers are very different. It is a constant factor between them. Also do you need to remove bad runs for this figure? Was <RefMult> part of the criteria to identify bad runs?

  Regards,

  Huan

Hi Huan,

Here is the plot under your suggestion. The red squares are the ratios you mentioned, the blue ones are the ratios for the rest of the runs.  

 

 

with best regards,

Haojie

Haojie,

  Instead of taking the ratios of upper and lower, will you please try
to have a look at the ratios of the RuRu for runs with <Vx> [-0.05,
-0.052] to ZrZr runs with <Vx> [-0.06, -0.062] and compare with what
you have now?

  Thanks.

Hi Gene, and all,

Thank you for the plot. I also made the same plot with more stat.

As I have shown in my previous plots that the multiplicity
distribution ratios Ru(<vx> > mean)/Zr(<vx> < mean) (~65 um
differences in vx) and Ru(<vx> < mean)/Zr(<vx> > mean) (~9 um
differences in vx) are almost the same (see also the attached plot).
The result shows no track effeicecy difference at this level.

with best regards,

Haojie

Hi, Jamie and all,

On this particular point....

I offer the following not as a contradiction, but as complementary
information on the beam positions (and I'm certainly not making any
kind of statement on noticeable impacts from beam positions on track
reconstruction efficiency)...

The mean <Vx> at z=0 for each fill (which I labeled as "x0") is
shown
in the below plot obtained from only a small fraction of the event
statistics. The colors show the two beam species. I would conclude
that whatever beam steering they were doing, they managed to get x0
consistent within a given species to within +/-15 microns
fill-to-fill. If it weren't for that consistency, we wouldn't see
the
apparent offset between the two species.

But on the core topic of this thread of tracking efficiency
differences between the two species, I do not have the confidence to
say that SpaceCharge & GridLeak distortion corrections are
consistent
between the two species at the level necessary to avoid systematic
track reconstruction efficiency differences at the 0.1% level. That
level of confidence would be difficult to achieve, in my opinion.
