h1. physics coordinator report
* Step I papers:-
** EMR data paper- VC talk, analysis completed and now in "write up" phase
** PID paper:- hung up on reconstruction issues; fixed unpacking has been run
but ADC response of the KL now looks different. Discussion Monday pm
** (Polarisation analysis - held up by dodgy EMR code)
* Cooling demo paper:
** Secondary absorber did not present sufficient material to the beamline to
shield the tracker, review of secondary absorber position which has caused
delay to the paper.
** Tried for a revision this week for review, it didn't work out, hope to have a
revision by next week
* Step IV papers:
** Status at http://micewww.pp.rl.ac.uk/analysis/analysis_dashboard.html
** Trying to bring material physics people "out of the woodwork"
* Rogers is re-establishing selection/weighting algorithms (dead since 2007)
** aim to drive an analysis of "physics block challenge" before MPB
** feed into review of data rate issues, etc.
* Field mapping
** Blackmore/Cobb have a good analysis of the field axis in the FC, which does not
produce the "tails" ruining the fitting, hopeful that SS will follow in time
for alignment beginning of April
* March/April running
** Rogers will be physics shifter on March 21st
** Trying to establish physics shifters on March 28th and following
* June running
** Planning note in preparation, due Friday
** Discuss/finalise note at a meeting Thursday 19th
** Tracker will not be able to get plan in time for the meeting
** Beamline (hardware) request an activation run
** EMR request one week
** C+M request one week
** TOF request 1 shift calibration data
** KL request cosmic data taking
** Ckov request roughly 1 shift day
** Beamline (optics) not sure
** Cooling channel first data may at some point come through, not sure
