79 | Solenoid fields off triggers at TOF1 44000 TOF2 1000 |
||
80 | Solenoid fields on triggers at TOF1 53000 TOF2 43000 |
||
81 | => 3 % rate scaling; but run with TOF2 trigger; so limit comes from ISIS/target |
||
82 | 120 triggers per spill with the Decay Solenoid at TOF1, not including tracker deadtime |
||
83 | Jaroslaw notes attempt to optimise was not successful |
||
84 | |||
85 | Physics shifter |
||
86 | * Seek to get the physics devil automated |
||
87 | |||
88 | Beamline |
||
89 | * Validated calibration |
||
90 | * Checked some old settings |
||
91 | * Made two additional settings to match to diffuser |
||
92 | * Made two additional settings to optimise for "straight tracks" |
||
93 | * Seeking to validate MC |
||
94 | |||
95 | EMR Papers |
||
96 | * Review next week (Tuesday) |
||
97 | |||
98 | Pion contamination |
||
99 | * See slides |
||
100 | * Feldman-Cousins? |
||
101 | ** Frequentist method based on likelihood ratio; can deal in an automatic way with statistical results that fall outside of physically allowed; determines upper limit or two sided; |
||
102 | ** Paul Soler suggests alternatively use Bayesian method (e.g. Higgs papers) |
||
103 | |||
104 | MDIC |
||
105 | * Final coil positions by MAP meeting |
||
106 | * Use IPAC paper as starting point for PR-ST AB paper |
||
107 | |||
108 | Error Fields |
||
109 | * Slide 4: cusps come from the mesh |
||
110 | * Slide 4: symmetry point is at -2.75; tracker is at around -4.75 to -5.75 |
||
111 | * Few * 10^-4 T in the tracker azimuthal |
||
112 | * Slide 9: units are T at 0.15 m |
||
113 | Solenoid fields in 2 weeks time |
