Eric Chong - Review of the event selection
-
CKJ: Is done in 3 or 2D? EC: in 3D.
-
CJV: How do you choose the voxel spread? EC: We project the voxel on the
-
CJV: If you have a diagonal cluster? CKJ: Is not looking at x, y or z, but at the projection along the second principal component analysis.
-
CKJ: Similar variables are used by collider physicist. Why you are calling this variable voxel spread and not length along second principal component?
-
GY: Do you apply linearity cut before or after voxel spread cut?EC: After.
-
CKJ: What the final goal of these cuts? EC: Select single tracks and reject blobs and kink track.
-
CKJ: Voxel spread is doing a good job!
-
CKJ: is the neutron energy on slide 10 the deposited energy? EC&GY: Neutron energy.
-
CKJ: Try to optimize the linearity and voxel spread cuts trying to improve the efficiency.
-
CR: We can use CERN TB but temperature is different. We want to compare LANL 20 m data with CERN data since there the temperature should be similar.
-
CR: Extreme changes in MC to see the impact on extinction coefficient.
-
CR: Other cuts under development. I've presented them 3 meeting ago.
-
CJV: It is not just MPPC efficiency, but also other effect like the tyvek etc. GY: This will be convoluted in Eric's later results.
Guang Yang - Task list and plans
-
CKJ: What is useful for SFGD from neutron TB analysis. This group should make a regular report to the SFGD meeting. GY: I will give a talk at next meeting.
-
CKJ: Slide 9: the amount of spread you are having is a direct reflection of the invisible scattering. If we could change the relative ratio of elastic scattering inside GEANT4. GY: More channels contribute to invisible scattering.
