10/25/11update BFC with pixl patch1 Update on the simulation with pixl patches BFC chain was working with TPC+full PiXL but crashes when I used patches for pixl : –Reason : different geometries used when PixhitCollection are written (StPixlFastSimMaker) and when tracking is done (StiHftHitLoader) –I was unable to have geometry file of a modified geom. (upgr15.h) using Gerrit’s how-to Jason had a recipe on his blog to create the proper file from starsim directly : starsim-geometry-root
10/25/11update BFC with pixl patch2 2 patches I’ve defined 2 others pixl geometry files : –pixlgeo13.g : adjacent patch –pixlgeo14.g : mercedes patch inner layer outer layer

10/25/11update BFC with pixl patch4 Plots are the 2D positions of the first hit on tracks Root file is MuDst.root = reconstructed tracks BFC chain works with patch Some issues to fix : almost no hits in the second layer Tracking evaluation using StRecTreeMaker next step : go back to hijing events with pileup
