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
  • Kicking material physics people up the bum...
• Rogers is re-establishing selection/weighting algorithms (dead since 2007)
  • analysis of "physics block challenge"
  • 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
• June running
  • Planning note in preparation, due Friday
  • Discuss/finalise note at a meeting Thursday 19th
