Hi Rosi, all,
- a side note -- to have in two weeks the results ready to show in public sounds a bit "overoptimistic"...
- It could be good to present the goal of this analysis - to study/measure what? It would help to understand how "efficient" ESE might be for that.
- the plots in Issac's presentation might be all right. Have you tried to estimate what to expect? Note that the ESE allows to vary v2 for about 20-50% (very roughly, depends on multiplicity, likely even less in isobar collisions). The contribution to q2 from v2 might be rather small; v2^2 \approx (q2^2 -1)/(mult-1) ).
- I would suggest to plot v2 vs q2. It is partially reflected in correlations observed in the resolution (slide 11) - but I am afraid the latter is "dominated" by the multiplicity variations.
- Judging from the EPD Psi2 resolution plot in slide 3, I would not be very optimistic for a significant variation in v2 vs q2, but it is worth to make the plot
- I would not "jump" to the method suggested by Gang. This one was developed for a very specific case (suppression of the background to the gamma correlator), and even there, the evaluation of corresponding "systematics" is far from fully understood.
regards,
Sergei

Hi Zhenyu,I'm a little confused, the weights that Isaac is using are the tile-by-tile EPD weights. Would one use the weights that are calculated for flattening, etc, the EP as well?The idea of this analysis is going into a poster and talk for the Hard Probes conference in 2 weeks, so it would be helpful if Isaac could get comments on a time scale earlier than a week. At the very least, confirming the analysis procedures. Right now he doesn't see a correlation in the TPC either - perhaps this is the weighting issue you mention.Cheers,RosiOn Thu, Mar 16, 2023 at 10:43 PM zhchen via Star-fcv-l <star-fcv-l AT lists.bnl.gov> wrote:Hi Isaac,
I would encourage you to present in next PWG meeting to have more
detailed discussion.
Based on my experience on a few event shape engineering analyses, the
definition of q2 is the magnitude of Q2 = Sum(w*exp(i2phi))/Sum(w). So
the denominator should include not only the multiplicity M but also the
other EPD weights.
Hope this could be helpful.
Cheers,
Zhenyu
