Mark noted that the next step in run preparation is to complete Hot check-Out for the start counter. That should start this week.
 
 
=== Review minutes from the last meeting ===
 
 
We went over the [[GlueX Start Counter Meeting, November 2, 2017#Minutes|minutes from November 2]].
 
 
Mahmoud asked for 5 M bggen events from Thomas once the code from the impending reconstruction launch stabilizes. These will be used for comparison between Monte Carlo and data.
 
 
=== Update on attenuation corrections ===
 
 
Mahmoud presented [https://halldweb.jlab.org/talks/2017/SC_Meeting_11_16_2017.pdf slides on his latest work] on attenuation corrections. He fits the dE/dx distribution in each paddle separately for different bins in distance-from-photo-detector. He then fits to two exponentials, one in the straight section, one in the bend+nose section where the continuity between the two is enforced at the boundary. The resulting correction makes a visible improvement in proton-pion separation. Please see his slide for details.
 
 
=== NIM Paper ===
 
 
Mahmoud finished all of the requested attenuation plots for the paper and passed them on to Werner Boeglin.
