Two or more clusters/event. 2.) Minimum three (3) (PbWO4 or lead glass) detectors to define a “cluster”. 3.) 50 MeV or greater central (PbWO4 or lead glass) crystal detector energy in cluster. 4.) 10 MeV or greater minimum deposited energy in (PbWO4 or lead glass) detector. 5.) Max cluster energy 8 GeV. 6.) gg invariant mass greater than 0.085 GeV in at least one of the cluster pairs. 7.) Elasticity (cluster pair energy sum/tagger energy) greater than 0.70. 8.) Cluster energy greater than 0.5 GeV. 9.) Cluster X or Y position must be greater than 4.1 cm. 10.) Cluster pair energy sum between 3.5 and 6.5 GeV -- additional software cut not imposed on the skim, but imposed later: 11.) Timing cut of -15 ns to +5ns. “pi0gains” used as calibration Data Source and Cuts
Likelihood Event entries have invariant mass, elasticity, and timing Which entry to choose in a mutli-entry event? Which is "most likely"? Fit invariant mass, elasticity, timing signal and background Fitted signal lineshape as probability density function (PDF) Evaluate the PDF for each parameter for each entry. Three individual likelihoods. PDFInvariant mass, PDFElasticity, PDFTiming Total likelihood = PDFInvariant mass × PDFElasticity ×PDFTiming Entry with highest total likelihood "wins". Event selectionEliminate Tagger and HyCal combinatorics
Misidentification – any systematics?No. MisID is random, and event selection tends to pick smaller production angle pions.
Original 2-D data Elasticity vs.Invariant Mass New 1-D signal AKA “Hybrid Mass” Rotation of 2-D data onto 1-DTry to enhance signal to noise
Additional “Diagonal” Data CutWarning—departure from analysis note
Apply Additional Cut and VetoWarning—departure from analysis note • Result • Greatly improved signal to noise • Removes 3rd order curvature from background • Requires well understood veto • Veto systematic error small in comparison to fit error and other systematic effect improvements
Plateau Elastic Pion YieldsAdditional minimization of signal to noise • Timing • Elastic p0 as a function of the timing cut • Integration Range (left, below) • Elastic p0 as a function of the integration range • Fitting Range (right, below) • Elastic p0 as a function of the fitting range
Original timing cut/data source Timing cut vs. pion yield plateau Timing cut set to ±5 ns
p0 yields as a function of production angle. These yields are extracted from a data set where the “diagonal” and veto cuts are applied. Final radiative width MUST correct for veto Photon Misidentification.
Simulation Work • Thrown with E-Channel Photon flux weighting • Primakoff (with FSI), Coherent (Cornell with FSI), Incoherent (Glauber) • Energy correction added • Energy lost out back of HyCal, out of cluster mask • Added back about 10% of energy • Tracking threshold tuned • Proper shower development • Resolution and centroid tuned • Get invariant mass right to proper mock physics • Vet the Simulation • Push 4 vectors from experiment thru sim • See how p0 candidate spectrum look, look for losses • Turn off detectors, see how acceptance behaves
Putting physics events thru the Simulation Around 99.2% fidelity
