  2. Outline • Geometry • SPD • SDD • SSD • General AliRoot status. Alice-ITS week Review June 7 2002

  3. Results of GeometryReview • SPD: only briefly looked at. • SDD: Geometry old but ok. • SSD: Missing two Front end cards, end ladder elements, wrong Al cooling tubes, and kapton cables. Otherwise old geometry. • End caps and services: Old course geometry otherwise ok. Alice-ITS week Review June 7 2002

Pre-March 2002 As of June 2002 Alice-ITS week Review June 7 2002

  7. Changes to Infrastructure • Old: • Hits  Digits  RecPoints  Tracks • Use Macros, works only for ITS, not in conjunction with other detectors. • All new data appended to end of initial galice.root file. • New: • Hits  SDigits  Digits  Tracks  PID • SDigits-0 + SDigits-1  Merging  Digits • Added Region of interest cut to Merging. • Merging done using a TTask, and others coming. • Hits  SDigits  Digits can be done for all detectors at one time (or soon will be). • Hits, SDigits, Digits, and RecPoints can be in different files. Alice-ITS week Review June 7 2002

  8. General ITS Comments • Fast-Point simulation getting more use than expected. • We still need to improve, write, documentation. • Test Macros and the like are still not being developed and disseminated. • We need to develop better simulations of Test Beam setups, so that we can make even better comparisons with our simulations. • ITS Algorithm Review was missed. Needs to be rescheduled and presentations need improvement. Alice-ITS week Review June 7 2002

  9. SPD related studies • Multiplicity Measurement studies. • Pseudorapidity distribution studies. • Vertex Reconstruction Studies. • SPD based Trigger studies. • SPD-ZDC Correlation studies. • SPD Occupancy studies. • SPD noise studies. • Still have Two available SPD simulations • Bari-Salerno Model (Default). • Dubna Model. Alice-ITS week Review June 7 2002

  10. Remaining SPDProblems • The Bari-Salerno model (FORTRAN version) is used by NA57. • The number of single pixel clusters simulated is more than seen in the Test Beam data. • The number of 2 and more wide pixels are greatly under predicted. Bari-Salerno Dubna Test Beam Alice-ITS week Review June 7 2002

  11. Remaining SPDProblems cont. • Adjusting parameter of the Dubna model can compensate a bit, but leads to unphysical diffusion parameters. • Changes to the Bari-Salerno model would require similarly unphysical asymmetric coupling parameters. Bari-Salerno Dubna Test Beam Alice-ITS week Review June 7 2002

  12. SDDActivities • Much work to try to speed up SDD detector simulation or at least move the slowest parts to SDigit creation. Based on 3 p-p events Alice-ITS week Review June 7 2002

  13. SDD Timings • The source of the slower SDD simulations are due to the need to have time correlated noise and so consequently use a FFT. • The TPC, also should have time correlated noise, but have not implemented it yet. At present they are using Random Gaussian noise. Alice-ITS week Review June 7 2002

MHz Alice-ITS week Review June 7 2002

  16. SSD Remaining problems • SSD Reconstruction needs review. • Piort Skowronski’s reconstruction need additional comments, to allow it to be maintained, and have it’s parameters reviewed. • Alternative Ghost and overlaping tracks algorithm needs to be investigated. • Ghost removal by tracking needs to be implemented. Alice-ITS week Review June 7 2002

  17. SSD Remaining problemscont. • SSD Digit-ADC histogram has unexpected shape. • See http://www.ts.infn.it/~efragiac/doublepeak/doublepeak.html and http://AliSoft.cern.ch/people/masera/ssd/ B=0.2T, old settings Mip peak Digit ADC Alice-ITS week Review June 7 2002

  23. General AliRootStatus • Production runs to produce Hits done in Fall 2001 and Winter 2002, more scheduled. • Big push to get all detectors producing SDigits, Digits, and RecPoints, within the same AliRoot section. • New high level data structures, use of TFolders. • SDigit merging and writing SDigits, Digits, and RecPoints into separate files.
