  3. Run selection • Runs are picked automatically from the logbook, with the following criteria: • PHYSICS run, Beam ON, GOOD Data Quality flag, GRPpp in DONE, at least one of SDD, T0, TOF, TPC, TRD, number of kCalibBarrel> 0, data migrated, B field ok • If TPC  TPCppin DONE • If TRD  TRD ppin DONE • If SPD  SPD ppin DONE (SPD should be always there) • GOOD Data Quality flag set online in the ACR • Runs should last at least 5 minutes • NB. • In pp: kCalibBarrel = SPI triggers; kCalibOuter = EMCAL + MUON + PHOS triggers • In pA: kCalibBarrel defined differently (see later); kCalibOuter = EMCAL + MUON + PHOS triggers C. Zampolli

  4. pA • During standard data taking: • Using high-multiplicity trigger (20 Hz) • Still to be set by Trigger experts; using VZERO • During MB-like data taking: • Downscaling at reconstruction level, according to: • min(max(nevents/10,30000),nevents)/nevents • If events <= 30000  reconstruct all • If events >= 300000  reconstruct 10% • In between, 30000 • No kCalibBarrel defined • kCalibOuter kept as now • More QA from fast MUON + calorimeters reconstruction (kPhysME) 30000 due to >3x higher multiplicity in pA than pp 30000 events 10% of the statistics C. Zampolli

  5. Trigger Clusters • Data taking will be in the same run with two different partitions: • Fast cluster  without SDD, AOCRDE, EMCAL, FMD, PHOS, MUON, PMD • ALL cluster  everybody • CENT cluster  without MUON, PMD • MUON cluster MUON + SPD + SSD (?) + T0 + V0 + ZDC Ken's talk at last PB C. Zampolli

  6. But… • Data taking will be in the same run with two different partitions: • Fast cluster  without SDD, ACORDE, EMCAL (?), FMD (?), PHOS, MUON, PMD • ALL cluster  everybody • CENT cluster  without MUON, PMD • MUON cluster MUON + SPD + SSD (?) + T0 + V0 + ZDC • Events in these clusters could be used for calibration, but the absence of SDD could bias the results, and SDD might not have enough events • Only use ALL + CENT • Standard pAkCalibBarrelshould not be associated to events from Fast cluster • MB data taking  dedicated alias as discussed in https://savannah.cern.ch/bugs/?99650 • Since an an event can be read out by two clusters, a sort of “exclusive” selection of aliases is needed (e.g. only ALL, not Fast) Ken's talk at last PB C. Zampolli

  7. CPass calibration code status • V5-03-Rev-03 should have been the “golden” release • Some changes needed, new revision foreseen No reprocessing possible yet C. Zampolli

  8. TPC calibration • dEdx resolution worsens at high rate (~8%), together with space point distortion (3 sigma) • So far, only extrapolation can be done • Procedure definition need data • For space point distortion, a first workaround could be put in place • Require manual calibration after PPass (high-pt trees needed) • After that, full calibration chain to be re-run (TPC calibration would change) C. Zampolli

  9. Current “schedule” • Monday 7 Jan, Sunday 13 Jan  machine and injectors commissioning • Monday 14 Jan  setting up for pA • 4 days of setup (could even be that they declare STABLE BEAMS) • Friday 18 Jan  Physics • 5-7 days of MB (to accumulate 100M events) • Then increase in luminosity, different trigger configuration • Monday 11 feb (at 6 am)  end of pA, start of pp at low energy • Each step depends on the previous one • Any delay could have consequences on the next steps! • E.g.: any delay this week would make pA shift in time • pAvsAp change of period probably better C. Zampolli

  10. 2012 data – what is left • LHC12h • VPass started over Christmas; almost completed • Run 189406 (8740 chunks for ~1.3M of MB events) failed in CPass0 merging (EE) • LHC12i • CPass reprocessing completed over Christmas (checking a few runs) • Manual update window to be opened, QA readiness to be assessed  deadline next week, then busy times for pA, so maybe VPass will need to be postponed C. Zampolli
