PHOS offline status report

ALICE offline week, 15.11.2010
PHOS offline status 2
Reconstruction status• Raw data reconstruction: – Fast fitting with GammaN is implemented. No much
improvement neither in Amp, no by using c2 cut => do not use.
– Correction for a time stamp by the L1 phase read out of ALTRO trailer.
• Time gate was introduced to RecoParameters and to Clusterizer to suppress noise. Not used by default, still under investigation.
• More flexibility on non-linearity correction added: one can choose functional form and parameters from OCDB. Default values not changed yet.

PHOS offline status 3
Online DQM• PHOS data quality monitor is implemented as QA
AMORE agent.• For the DQM shifter a single histogram is shown:
the number of cells per event.• In pp run the physics events are rare, hence the
number of cells is determined by noisy channels.• In Pb-Pb run the occupancy of the PHOS detector
may be high, so the number of cells is determined by the sum of noise and physics signals.

PHOS offline status 4
PHOS OCDB objects• Energy calibration: conversion from ADC
counts to GeV• High gain/low gain ratio• Bad channel map• Alignment• Reconstruction parameters• All objects are produced offline

PHOS offline status 5
PHOS energy calibration• Pre-calibration: adjusting the high-voltage APD bias to provide the same
APD gain for all channels. Achieved calibration accuracy: 20-50%;
• Physics data with pp collisions allowed to improve calibration using equalization of the mean deposited energy per channel from physics events. Achieved calibration accuracy: 6.5%;
• Final calibration will be finalized using equalization of the 0 peak per channel. Accumulated statistics is still not enough for it. The goal is to achieve calibration accuracy of 1%.
• Difference between pass1 and pass2 reconstructions for PHOS:
– LHC10b: pass1, pass2 – both initial calibration
– LHC10c: pass1 – raw calibration, pass2 – latest calibration
– LHC10d: pass1 was corrupted due to OCDB error can’t be used, pass 2 OK
– LHC10f, g: latest calibration in both passes15.11.2010

Calibration with <E>
15.11.2010
For each PHOS cell calculate mean energy <Ei> in the range E>0.06 GeV
Calculate corrections to the CC: Ci = const/<Ei>, where const was adjusted to put π0 peak to 135 MeV/c2.
Use Ci to calculate <Ei> of the next iteration: recalibrate cell energy with Ci
recalculate energy and position of the cluster Calibration was found on 70M event sample

PHOS HG/LG calibration• PHOS FEE measures energy by 2 ADCs with different gains:
• High gain: 2 MeV – 2 GeV, 10 bits
• Low gain: 32 MeV – 32 GeV, 10 bits
• Ratio HG/LG may vary from channel to channel.
• Precise value HG/LG is needed to ensure a continues spectrum in the whole range 2 MeV – 32 GeV
• HG/LG was measured in dedicated LED runs with variable amplitudes.
• HG/LG is a property of the electric circuit and cannot change in time. One high-statistics LED run is enough to calculate it once and forever.

PHOS offline status 10
HG/LG measurements
15.11.2010
• HG/LG ratio varies within RMS 2%.• Mean value is different in module 4 compared with modules 2 and 3.
PHOS offline status 11
Bad channel map
15.11.2010
Bad channel map was found off-line from different sources of information:
• Pedestal runs
• LED runs with variable amplitude
• LED runs with zero amplitude
• Physics runs
In total 1371 channels are bad (out of 10752)

Track Matching, LHC10c pass2 dz vs z
No slope in dz(z) distribution. Still there is some jump between + and – z: 0.33 cm for mod.3 and 0.2 cm for mod 4. (residual TPC decalibration + TPC sector dependence?)15.11.2010

Good run selectionRuns suitable for physics analysis were selected by studying the output histograms of the analysis train (wagon CaloQA):
• Cell multiplicity
• Cell energy spectrum
• Cluster multiplicity
• Cluster mean energy
• Slope of the cluster energy spectrum
• Number of reconstructed 0 per event.

Tuning MC to reproduce real data
15.11.2010
•Decalibration is imitated by the Gaussian smearing of calibration parameters with =6.5%.•Non-linearity correction was introduced to MC.•All corrections to MC are applied in analysis. MC in mass production run always with ideal (residual) OCDB.
PHOS offline status 24
peak position and width in pp
Measured mass of 0 and are consistent with PDG values a proof of good energy linearity.
15.11.2010
Preparation for HI• Keep same thresholds and other parameters
as for pp=>Use same calibration
Possible caveats: too high occupancy and too large clusters
Two more branches were switched off in last 2 months =>revisit BadMap
PHOS offline status 26
Invariant mass: 0 in Pb-Pb
15.11.2010
PHOS offline status 27
Simulation status• Simulation of anchor runs is performed with
the PHOS OCDB objects from raw:// - bad channel map and reconstruction parameters. Calibration is taken from residual OCDB, because calibration improves with time, and simulation will not re-run.
• Applying real calibration parameters is passed to analysis.
15.11.2010
PHOS offline status 28
Summary• PHOS calibration is an offline task which requires the full available
statistics.
• Conditions: calibration parameters, bad channel map, HG/LG ration are stable. Once they are found, then can be used in pass1 reconstruction for future LHC periods.
• Further improvement of PHOS calibration requires 109 pp events. Until this statistics is accumulated, pass1 and pass2 reconstructions have equally good quality.
• Dispersion: Still 10% difference between data and MC – investigating
• Track matching: Accuracy is sufficient for PID cuts. In f direction matching can be improved by modifying “distance” to PHOS for hadrons
