Dear All

With the bad run list for centrality calibration close to be finalized, now is a good time to add the QA variables for PWG specific ban run lists. You can find a list of variables here: https://drupal.star.bnl.gov/STAR/pwg/common/bes-ii-run-qa. I would like to ask PWG helpers to provide codes to Ashik on how to calculate those requested variables. 

@Kaifeng: for the two variables proposed by HF PWG, i.e. bTofYLocal, bTofZLocal, could you discuss with the working group whether they are needed? There was a concern that they are sensitive to vertex position, which is quite wide for BES-II datasets. Do these two variables provide additional information on TOF PID performance besides 1/beta? Do they find new bad runs?

Thanks!

Best
