Irina Machikhiliyan, 10.10.2012 Relative ECAL adjustment on the basis of raw occupancies
ECAL occupancies: definition Irina Machikhiliyan, 10.10.2012 Typical ADC spectrum (~300K of noBias events, one hour of data taking). Typical occupancy map for ECAL (~300K of noBias events, μ = 1.592) OCC = Nentries(adc_reading > threshold) / Nentries Threshold is set to 18 ADC counts (for ECAL it is equivalent to ≈ 0.05 GeV of transverse energy) Nentries(full) is the same as the number of events Cell O 04/08 (one of Outer most peripheral, i. e. worst statistical case) ADC counts threshold
ECAL occupancies: method Irina Machikhiliyan, 10.10.2012 • Idea: • Fix occupancy map for certain run as the reference (e.g. the run where the fine calibration is available) and then correct detector response drift due to rad. damage, PMT, etc. on the level of individual cells, using ratio of occupancies • Benefits: • raw ADC readings, which means that no reconstruction, no information from other sub-detectors, no alignment, etc is required • noBias data: at fixed beam energies the only normalization required is the one on μ (see below). The following slides: occupancies are always normalized on μ. • processing is very fast • statistics collected during one [typical] fill will be enough (see below) • correction is possible for each individual cell • Limitations: • will not provide or improve absolute calibration, only allowing relative adjustment to keep trigger rates and detector response more or less stable • precision: particle flux stability; ECAL resolution; • does not take into account changes in PRS/SPD response (though as concerns rad. damage, it should be correlated with the ECAL damage) Theoretically, absolute calibration is possible if one takes MC occupancy map as the reference, but it requires very good MC description…

Irina Machikhiliyan, 10.10.2012 UNEXPECTED (for me, at least)
Irina Machikhiliyan, 10.10.2012 There were two periods when data were taken / initially reconstructed with calibration constants 1. (after HV tuning): • Fill 2596 (7 May, run 114752) – Fill 2737 (17Jun, run 118828), CONDDB 20120420 • Fill 3016 (31 Aug, run 126831) – Fill 3071(16 Sep, run 128480), CONDDB 20120829 OCC(118828) / OCC(114752) OCC(128480) / OCC(126831)
Period I Irina Machikhiliyan, 10.10.2012 OCC(115454) / OCC(114752) OCC(115556) / OCC(115454) OCC(118828) / OCC(11556) MAGNET POLARITY CHANGE: DOWN → UP
Period II Irina Machikhiliyan, 10.10.2012 OCC(128100) / OCC(128631) OCC(128418) / OCC(128100) MAGNET POLARITY CHANGE: DOWN → UP

Attempt to increase the threshold Irina Machikhiliyan, 10.10.2012 OCC(128480) / OCC(126831), threshold 18 OCC(128480) / OCC(126831), threshold 50 Check with LEDs PmPin(115556) / PmPin(115454) PmPin(128418) / PmPin(128100)
Check with π⁰ Irina Machikhiliyan, 10.10.2012 Input: photons from Phys/StdLoosePhotons/Particles Selection cuts: Et(γ) > 200 MeV, Et(γγ) > 1 GeV; NoSpd3x3 No obvious changes in energy scale Number of π⁰ in the Outer: (?) reflects change in charged tracks distribution (?) (prefer to check more data / other streams before making any statements)
Conclusions Irina Machikhiliyan, 10.10.2012 • Fast tuning / monitoring of ECAL response, based on occupancy values ispossibleon the level of individual cells. Let’s try? • Asymmetrical change of occupancy map with magnet polarity change (up to 20% in the Outer) • ECAL energy scale seems to be unaffected • as concerns occupancy tuning / monitoring, the effect can be easily compensated by comparing occupancies for two fills before and after polarity change and then producing the new reference map, but… • the reason? How it affects charge particles’ distribution? Can it be seen in MC?
