[BLAST_ANAWARE] Minutes of the analysis meeting on Wed 2005/07/06

From: Michael Kohl (kohlm@mit.edu)
Date: Wed Jul 06 2005 - 14:04:19 EDT


We focused on the status of outer detector calibrations and recrunch, see
presentation by MK.

Calibration and recrunch:

- Work on 2005 timing calibration in progress. Still using same walk and
  flasher calibrations like 2004.
- First lrd-recrunch of 2005 data complete (took 4 days)
- There are periods without flasher signals in the data
- Will recrunch again when new walk and flasher calib from cosmics are
  complete
- Resume work on 2004 calibrations thereafter

Mark Steadman presented a new macro tool to display contents of the
database. It display any numerical quantity of any database table versus a
specified range of runs. (Will be made available at a central location)

Miscellaneous:

- 2005 e,e'n data will *not* be ready for conference approval at the
  steering committee meeting next week.
  + need to iterate recrunch for timing (see above)
  + need updated Montecarlo (2005 geometry, spin angle map)
  + need hPz for 2005
  Goal is to achieve preliminary results for September conferences.

- Discussion about upcoming meetings:
  + We agreed to keep the frequency of meeting once every week
  + Meetings are informal, people are encouraged to openly discuss their
    tasks, issues and concerns
  + We'll continue to have topical reviews
  + Upcoming topics: Magnetic field measurements, wire chamber
    reconstruction, pion production analysis, Blast Montecarlo, Radiative
    effects, ...

> we are meeting on Wednesday 2005/07/06 at 10am in the conference room.
> Focus this time will be the status of outer detector calibration.
>
> I will review the strategy how to get to proper timing, show where we are
> right now and what the tasks for the coming weeks are.
>
> Mark Steadman has worked on the 2005 run-by-run calibration
> and on the communication to the mysql-database and will report abbout some
> new features.
>
> The status of recrunch will be reviewed.
>
>
>
> This is the last "small" meeting before the collaboration meeting. There
> will be a "big" all-day analysis meeting on Wednesday, July 13, 2005.
>
> We should also discuss the agendas of the forthcoming meetings.
