STAR Flow, Chirality and Vorticity PWG

[EsumiShinIchi <esumi.shinichi.gn AT u.tsukuba.ac.jp>]

Dear Shengli and all

I agree with you for the most of your arguments. 

Prithwish was trying to say in the pwg meeting yesterday that 

we need to have some requirements in the forward / backward 

region to reduce beam backgrounds. In principle, the high multiplicity 

requirement would be better given/defined at wider eta acceptance 

like the CMS triggering, in order not to be self-biased by the jet 

production in a small acceptance where you also try to measure 

correlations/flows. ATLAS is triggering with forward+backward 

excluding the central region, which might be better or could be worse. 

It does not matter much for the heavy ion collisions case, but it 

might affect the result in small system. So it might be worth to have 

both measurements as you add 5) at the end...

Best regards, ShinIchi

Dear All,

1)Before we have the beam, the threshold remains unknown.

2)We currently only trigger a 20% fraction of MB pp events; hence, I don't anticipate any asymmetric distribution.

3)In our proposal, we solely seek a TOF HM trigger. Regarding the TOF threshold, once the beam is available, we'll adjust it to maintain the DAQ rate of HM events at approximately 20% of the MB rate, akin to our approach in the dAu HM setup. This adjustment should be straightforward.

4)If the luminosity proves insufficient to meet the 50% MB + 50% HM requirement, we can modify the pre-scale of MB to incorporate more MB events.

5)If there's interest in an EPD HM trigger, I suggest utilizing EPDE+EPDW simultaneously, as we did in OO. Additionally, we must verify the trigger efficiency and TPC multiplicity from EPDEW HM trigger dataset.

Thanks

Shengli

Dear Prithwish and all

Thank you very much.

(1) (TOF4 && EPDW) or (TOF4 && EPDE)
(2) TOF4 && (EPDW || EPDE)
(3) TOF4 && (EPDW && EPDE)

"EPDTAC diff (green)” corresponds to the EPD E&W, and
“EPDEW (green)” corresponds to the EPD E+W with a
threshold on the sum?

I wrote “or” and “||” differently and intentionally in above (1)-(3),
so if we add both sides of “or” in (1), it’ll become sane as (2)
as Mike was agreeing in the meeting, right? If you take timing
difference between EPDW and EPDE, we need to require hits
on both EPDs, therefore it’ll become (3). In order to be less
biased (in terms of forward and backward symmetry) high
multiplicity (biased) event, I think (3) is better, since we would
like to give a maximum biased high activity p+p event. Having
same threshold on TOF4, we might be able to increase the
threshold on EPD for (1) and (2) cases, while we could keep
relatively lower threshold on EPD in (3) case for the same rejection
factor. If we have the same EPD threshold we could also select
the same sample as (3) later in offline within the triggered
events of (1) or (2).

Considering the TOF acceptance is smaller than full iTPC
eta acceptance, we might be affected by the centrality/activity
selection bias, when we do TOF multiplicity dependent
"dphi vs deta” analysis, in that sense, we might like to have
somewhat higher threshold on EPD relatively to TOF. We
could start by taking Shengli’s minimum cuts on the high
multiplicity selection on TOF hits (top ~10% fraction?) for the
TOF4 threshold, and tune the EPD threshold by looking at
the rejection factor? I do not know whether we like to give
an for/back asymmetric bias intentionally for the our forward
detector. I thought not, or?

Best regards, ShinIchi
