Run4 fK+K- analysis update Dipali Pal Vanderbilt University Light/Heavy PWG meeting June 2, 2005
Dataset Minimum-bias CNT files Used both ++ and -- field runs from stripe 1-3. |bbcz| < 30 cm Nevt = 85M (++ field) = 55M (-- field) Standard single and pair cuts. (CabanaBoy)
Data MC fiducial region studies: TOF – TOF (++ field, positive tracks) Before After For details of fiducial matches please see Charlie’s slides in June 6 Global/Hadron Meeting. Need to re-address the issues with Dch dead channel map.
Data MC fiducial region studies: TOF – TOF (++ field, negative tracks) Before After
Data MC fiducial region studies: TOF – TOF (-- field, positive tracks) Before After
Data MC fiducial region studies: TOF – TOF (-- field, negative tracks) Before After
TOF – TOF mT spectra (++ field runs) Used the same embedding and run-by-run efficiencies as Run2.
TOF – TOF mT spectra (-- field runs) Used the same embedding and run-by-run efficiencies as Run2.

Summary Fiducial acceptance in data and MC is being studied. -- First version of fiducial cuts applied. -- TOF shows substantial mismatch between data and MC (See Charlie’s presentation in June 6 Global/hadron PWG). -- There are still issues related to Dch dead channel map. dN/dy and T has been extracted from TOF-TOF combination in both ++ and – field runs. dN/dy and T are consistent between ++ and – field runs.
