Title: Pixel Offline Status
1Pixel Offline Status

testbeam meeting
2To Do List Of Last Month
- Finish alignment and ntuple generating.
- Skim all data files with hit trigger.
- Include real ADC-charge conversion once Lorenzo
finishes the calibration. Currently the
conversion uses a set of value I chose long time
ago. And we have only charge weight, no eta
correction. - Put more realistic expected resolution. Currently
we use our knowledge from last test beam. - We need chi2 value without DUT hits for track
selection. If you choose very loose chi2 for now
it is not a big issue. - Update offline instruction.
3Tracking without DUT
- We need tracking quality of the telescope without
DUT. In this way we can select very good track
without worrying bias the results. - Extra parameter to indicate DUT dut_plane(7)1
. - Parameters for user event trigger max_miss_plan
es, max_miss_teles. - In NTUPLE the parameters are chisq_t, cl_t,
ndof_t. - Suggested track quality selection cl_t gt 0.01
4Issue of 1-column Hits
- In Kalman filter we treat pixel hits as two strip
hits (strip_equivalent) one Y, and one X. - For X planes an 1-column Y strip_equivalent hit
is not taken into fit, whereas 2-column hit is
included. The resolutions are 100 mm and 10mm
respectively. Same to X hits of Y planes. - This causes some problems if you want to estimate
tracking resolution naively. The Kalman filter
provides a projected error of the hit. - The 1-column strip_equivalent hit does not help
tracking resolution. It makes calculation of chi2
not reasonable because the distribution is not a
Gaussian function. - We will continue skipping those hits.
5FPIX1 Calibration
Plane 5, a relatively good plane.
- Hits with multiple-pixel can have charge
weighting in determining the position. - FPIX1 planes are not as good as FPIX2. We need to
include inefficiency in MC simulation of tracking
resolution. - Absolute calibration is needed.
Parameters cleared, recalculated, copied.
6Multiple Tracks in One Event
- Track generation in MC is tuned to real data,
run 1981. - Beam fully covers all detector planes.
- Number of tracks ?0.8 for full coverage.
- Beam direction spread sx0.130mrad,
sy0.152mrad.
7Multiple Scattering
Effects of multiple scattering A track starting
at plane 3, the spread at plane 11 (Dz90cm) is
sxsy22.7 mm. The tracking error on DUT planes
changes from 3.3 mm to 3.9 mm.

12Summary
- Recent activities of offline code are mainly
focused on tuning MC simulation. - The number of hit pixels and X resolution is
still different from real measurement. - I will continue this work.
- The eta correction and realistic resolution are
yet to be included.
