Attempt to solve alignment problem with E/p ratio (very preliminary) 04.11.2003 Weekly meeting
Motivation (1) • An alternative way to find time dependent term for momentum correction (misalignment variation in time) using LKr. • For e+ and e- we compare E (measured by LKr) with P (measured by spectrometer).
Motivation (2) • Momentum distortions: Preal = Pobservable + dPM + dPAC +dPAT(t) where: dPM – magnetic field correction dPAC – constant misalignment correction dPAT(t) – time dependent misalignment correction • Energy measured by LKr: Ereal = Eobservable + dE , where the corrections dE is expected to be time independent. • The correction dPATwill be connected with E/p ratio: dPAT(t) + dPconst= E – P = P (E/P – 1).
Selection (1) • We need “pure” electrons and positrons coming from: K pp0D • Selection: • 3 tracks coming from 1 vertex • Only 1 vertex • Time window 40 ns • DTrack time < 10 ns • 1 unassociated cluster in LKr with E>2 GeV • Zvertex < 8500 cm • RCOG < 2 cm • No E/p conditions for e+, e- and p. • In case of three tracks we have two possible mass solutions for a given charge of the kaon (we know what exactly is the “odd” particle and the “even” particles can swap their masses). We take the combination, which mass is more close to the PDG value of the kaon mass. • To exclude additional background, we remove events with mee<0,01 GeV.
Selection (2) |M-MPDG|<0,01 Mass spectra E/p spectra
E/p for supersample I e+(K+) e-(K+) e+(K+) e-(K+) e+(K-) e-(K-) e+(K-) e-(K-) Without dPM correction… With dPMcorrection (B corrected to put <M+3p + M-3p>/2=MPDG)
E-p for supersample I e+(K+) e-(K+) e+(K+) e-(K+) e+(K-) e-(K-) e+(K-) e-(K-) Without dPM correction… With dPMcorrection.
E/p and E-p for supersample II e+(K+) e-(K+) e+(K+) e-(K+) e+(K-) e-(K-) e+(K-) e-(K-) E/pE-p
To do… • Check the correction on B field. • Corrections dependencies of (X,Y)DCH, P e.t.c. • Apply the obtained corrections to pions from K3p and check the mass split. • Check another source of electrons and positrons.
