Minutes
Participants
David L., Paul M., Zisis P, George L., Curtis M., Matt S., Beni Z., Eugene C (partial)
Neutron/photon discrimination
Beni showed some plots from simulated data indicating the discriminating power of the BCAL between neutrons and photons. The plots were uploaded recently and missing some labels:
- Red = neutron
- Black = photon
- x-axis:
- bins 1-4 represent the number of neighboring readout cells that fired
- bin 5 represents
BCAL energy/time Resolution Comparison to 2006 beam test
BCAL Reconstructed Time Resolution
Action Items
- Look at π(1600) events with higher proton mass to see if better proton/pion separation exists for the 1234 than 334 scheme. (Paul)
- Add more labels and more angles to plots showing neutron/photon discriminating power (Beni)
- Resolve issues with extracting proton timing resolutions from existing MC (David)
- Write ITYS section of minutes (George)
