Summary of Test Beam AnalysisMeeting - Jan 26

• Eduardo do Couto e Silva

DATA STORAGE/RETRIEVAL

• 400 Gb disk provided by SCS thanks to Richard (1
  week)
• ORACLE/Web base electronic log (1 week)
  Dave,Traudl,Karen
• Dave Lauben Tagger data not all in ROOT format,
  some data needs synchronization between
  subdetectors, fix particular runs for the neutron
  counters

3
ROOT FORMAT

• Dan waiting feedback from everyone - deadline 1
  week after web log system
• Preliminary checks Dan/Berrie (comparing with PAW
  ntuples)
• Need IRF-ROOT interface - Dan/Sawyer ?
• Need IDL wrapper - Jeff, Heather, Dan

4
TRACKER STUDIES

• Aim at freezing ROOT format (2 weeks)
• Propose standalone RECON for all subsystems (TKR
  ready in 1 week), means more flexibility and
  improve analysis speed.
• Several studies to be performed on tracker, Tasks
  at UCSC (Ian, Jeff, Robert) and at SLAC (Derek,
  Eduardo, Marios, Takanobu)
• Jose Angel/Wilko concentrate on RECON aiming at
  obtaining PSFs.

PRELIMINARY PLOTS from

• Takanobu - dead channels (tracker)
• Berrie - Energy (CAL) , CAL vs ACD,
• Berrie reported problems with ACD veto
  (discrimator bits) D. Lauben is investigating
• Al/Eduardo - Pulse Height vs Time (neutron
  counters)

7
DOCUMENTATION

• Traudl - nice user guide, concise and complete,
  needs feedback (on going medium term development)
  
• Eduardo/Karen - Web page with appropriate links
  and repository for notes (this week)

8
AOB

• Web conference suggested by Steve Ritz
• Eduardo waits for feedback from people to decide
  date for regular meetings - Monday or Friday
  (allocate 2 h slot).
• Results for paper will be discussed later since
  there are more urgent needs now (Data storage and
  log, preliminary checks, RECON , IRF-ROOT,
  ROOT-IDL)

9
SUMMARY

• 1 week - to get web based data log system
• 2 weeks - data stored into 400Gbyte disk and
  freeze ROOT format
• 1 month - IRF-ROOT interface (needed for GLASTSIM
  with standalone RECON)
• next meeting - expect plots from different
  detector studies, revisit IDL/ROOT wrapper, plots
  from RECON-standalone
