p + p Analysis K. Hagel Cyclotron Institute Texas A & M University BRAHMS Collaboration Meeting Oslo, Norway 12-May-2004
Short History of Ratio p+p story • Had what we believed to be almost complete analysis one year ago. • Preliminary results shown at DNP at MSU • Discovered bug in track projection when using INEL counters; fixed it • Re-did entire chain • Results seem to be “messed up” • Statistics, binning, other mistake • Quality of data • Following details analysis chain I used Brahms Collaboration Meeting
Cuts on the Data • INEL Vertex cut • Trigger cut (6 for FS, 3 for MRS) • Track-Vertex cut • Detector Fiducial cut • Swim status cut • Pid cut • Rapidity cut Brahms Collaboration Meeting
INEL Vertex Cut • MRS: -15 to 15cm • FS: -25 to 20cm • No bins in vtx in this analysis as this did not appear to change the results in a previous analysis. Brahms Collaboration Meeting
Track - Vertex Cut • Project track to beam • Take difference between track vertex and INEL vertex • Apply 2σ cut Brahms Collaboration Meeting
MRS Detector Fiducial Cut Brahms Collaboration Meeting
FS Detector Fiducial Cut Brahms Collaboration Meeting
Pid Cut • MRS • momentum dependent cuts in MRS • Centroids of p-dependent cuts adjusted run by run. • FS • Some momentum dependent cuts • Others straight where possible Brahms Collaboration Meeting

Summary • Have a complete analysis • Bjorn has comparisons of our results • Refinements to data analysis? • Towards publication • Should be fast although already slow • Towards spectra • Already have some preliminary spectra • They probably suffer from any problems that might be in here.
