Rongrong,

To add to Olga's response, the reason we see this effect specifically in the center bins of dphi in R05 and not in the other dphi bins is due to the semicircular geometry employed in our UE definition. This is highlighted on slide 22 in backup. For all other R the semicircle does not reach the edge of our distribution in deta, but for R05 specifically, the area reaches the edge around dphi = 0.

Best,

Gabe

Hello Gabe

Thanks for including those backup slides. 

If I understand correctly, what you mean is that the UE distribution close to the edge (|deta| ~ 1) has large error bars, which contributes to the large errors seen in dphi ~ 0. Is this correct? If so, why don't they contribute to other dphi bins? Also, since your jet-hadron range is 0.5, I would naively expect you only use UE within |deta| < 0.5. Do I miss anything?

Best

Conveners,

Thank you for all of your comments and input. 

I have updated my Star-Talks submission here:

https://drupal.star.bnl.gov/STAR/presentations/Hard-Probes-2023/Baryon-Meson-Ratios-AuAu-and-pp-collisions-sqrtsNN-200-GeV

I have implemented many changes in this version to address all of the comments I received from Nihar and Barbara, as well as general rephrasing throughout to simplify text on slides.

Rongrong, the first three slides in the backup section are included to address your question about the origin of two strange points in the Au+Au correlated jet peak signal.

I will create a separate drupal page with figures included as individual files shortly.

Let me know if you have further questions or comments.

Many thanks,

Gabe
