Reaction
- γ p → φ3(1850), p
- φ3(1850) → K+, K-
- Final State: p, K+, K-
- Events generated with: Γφ3(1850) = 87 MeV/c2, t-slope = 5.0, 50.0 < Vertex-Z (cm) < 80.0
Analysis Overview
- For each q = +/- particle in the reaction, all detected q = +/- tracks are tested as to whether or not they are that particle
- e.g. If a q = + track has PID FOM > 1% for both the π+ & K+: allow both combinations (DO NOT take the best FOM as true!)
- Maximum of 8 tracks per event (to cut down on memory spikes).
- The analysis (cuts/histing/kinfits) is then performed on each possible track combination (events are only cut if every one of their track combinations is cut):
- Required 45.0 < Track-Vertex-Z (cm) < 85.0
- Require the combined FOM for PID (χ2 and NDF of all tracks summed together) be > 1%
- Placed VERY wide cuts on the non-signal invariant mass peaks: reduces # of bogus track combinations to save time / cleanup histograms
- Where kinematic fit: Require that the confidence level from the kinematic fit be > 1%
