STAR QA Board

["Ting Lin" <tinglin@sdu.edu.cn>]

Hi all:

A brief minutes for today's meeting:
https://drupal.star.bnl.gov/STAR/comp/qa/pwg-qa/run-22-qa

For Run-22 offline QA:
 1). Run 23098061 – iTPC 20 completely out:
 2). Run 23098063 st_fwd – has no TPC hits in events from the 4 files 
processed. St_physics data stream not available.
 3). Runs 23100025, 23100049, 23102014, 23104003 st_fwd, 23104004 st_physics, 
- large number of missed MTD-TPC track matches.
 3). Run 23104052 st_physics has very few primary vertices, relative to the 
total number of HT triggers. The st_fwd data stream is normal.
     -> It looks like beam was lost, but keep taking data. Most of that time 
there was no beam, the rich scaler is not there.
 4). eTOF QA plots appeared in several runs. All plots were empty. These 
were, for example in runs 23102056, 23104036, 23104050, 051
     -> eTOF group is doing some test. Geary and Norbert taking on the 
control, so eTOF do appear in the daq sometimes.
 5). Run 23098035 had several new BTOW spikes and energy clusters.

>From different PWGs:
 1). Jump in from ~ idx 223: 23101064 to ~ idx 264: 23102068  
  -> ETOW: configuration failed -- watch ETOW triggers or restart run. " and 
ETOW: failed crate Ids: 2
  -> ETOW was taken out of the trigger chain starting from run 23102018 and 
it was brought back in run 23102019.
    In general, a lower when compared to last week.
 2). Run23097054, bToFMult drop, no information for this run in Shiftlog.
     -> see unusual low number of reconstructed events compared to HT from 
offline QA;
     -> 5mins short run.
 3). Due to the THUB problem, there is no VPD West hits, so VPD Vz also not 
available.

Please pay attention to Gene's list of questionable runs, and check if some 
of these runs are already in the list of your Run-22 QA list.

Best,
Ting
