STAR HardProbes PWG

["Ma, Rongrong" <marr AT bnl.gov>]

Hello Gabe

Thanks for preparing the new slide to address my comments, which looks good. I think the reason one seems larger deviation at low pt is that jet pt spectrum gets steeper at lower pt. 

It seems like you apply jet R_AA to p+p spectrum after smearing. Ideally, one should apply it to corrected spectrum in p+p. Since that is not available, it is probably more correct to apply it to p+p spectrum before smearing.

Hi Isaac,

Here is a link to my preliminary figures request post: https://drupal.star.bnl.gov/STAR/blog/gdalegau/Preliminary-Figures-Request-Hard-Probes-2024-Baryon-Meson-Ratios-Jets

I have currently addressed all comments from the HP-pwg meetings as well as the analysis meeting this morning. I have included one new slide in response to Rongrong's comments today. It is the first slide in backup, showing a comparison of the p+p jet spectra before and after embedding. This slide demonstrates the effect of introducing Au+Au background into p+p jets. The resulting post-embedding jet spectra, with the addition of R_AA, is used in my template fits to determine fake rate. These spectra now account for the presence of Au+Au and the published R_AA.

I am happy to field any further questions and comments via email. I will upload my presentation draft for the conference soon.

Thanks,

Gabe

Hi Hard Probes presenters,

I would appreciate it if you could reply to this message with a link to your preliminary request slides (if applicable) and a sentence or two describing any follow-ups you are currently implementing from previous meeting discussions before preliminary status can be given, as well as an estimate for the time/date when you will send a final set of request slides. Sorry to those of you who have already sent slides in some form to other email chains — it would just be helpful for the conveners if we could collect the latest and most up-to-date links all in one place as we review.

Thanks,
Isaac
