Planner only considers whole units of resources, so all resource allocations are always truncated to the next lowest percent. That explains discrepancy between planner cost/duration and that of primavera for the PWA development line.

TRANSVERSE MOMENTUM-DEPENDENT SPIN STRUCTURE OF NEUTRON
YI QIANG
DUKE UNIVERSITY
Transversity is quark’s transverse polarization in a transversely polarized nucleon. At a realistic 3-D point of view, transversity is the lease known one compared to the f1 and g1 distribution functions. At Jefferson Lab Hall A, we recently finished the first measurement of the target single spin asymmetry in the semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering with a transversely polarized 3He target. The goal is to extract neutron transversity which gives a unique azimuthal angular dependence in target single spin asymmetry when convoluted with Collins fragmentation function in SIDIS reactions. Other two leading twist transverse momentum distributions, Sivers function and pretzelosity will be extracted as well. The data from this experiment, when combined with world data collected on proton, deuteron SIDIS and e+e- annihilation, will provide constraints on the transversity, Sivers distributions and Collins fragmentation function on both u and d-quark in the valence region. Details of the experiment will be presented.

Ray Swingle fixes it for me:

Mark,

I installed the intel audio drivers for you. Please reboot and see if
it is working now.

Thanks,

  • Werner has a python (perl?) script that generates an HDDS specification of the start counter, including rohacell support and light guides. Seem like this works, more or less.
  • Tim/Chuck have some version from the past that has an uncertain relationship to the latest design.
  • The version in HDGeant presently is pretty close to Werner’s latest thinking.
  • Essential features of the current design are 40 sectors, 2 cm diameter opening for beam in forward direction.
  • Need a way to align HDGeant and Tim’s/Chuck’s (I-DEAS) drawings
  • Need to establish an authority for changing the geometry of the target. Some start counter design considerations might depend on the possibility of changing target geometry choices.

 

Search for Φ(1862) Pentaquark States
Hovanes Egiyan
University of New Hampshire
Following first observations of the possible S = +1 pentaquark state Θ+ (1540), there have
been many experiments in various laboratories to verify these results and to search for
states which could be associated with other members of the pentaquark antidecuplet. The
NA49 collaboration reported observations of narrow S = −2 states with masses about
1860 GeV showing in the Ξπ invariant mass spectra. These states were identified as
isospin 3/2 members of the pentaquark antidecuplet, and were named Φ(1862). However,
other experiments, some of which were of very high statistics, have failed to reproduce
these results. A dedicated experiment has recently been performed at Jefferson Lab using
the CLAS detector to search for the Φ(1862) state in photoproduction on a deuterium
target. A large data sample has been collected and analyzed containing approximately
two thousand π − Ξ− candidates. After a brief introduction to the subject the CLAS
experiment will be described, and the results will be presented during this talk.

Noticed in the past that some fits throw exceptions with non-bracketed minima because a trial trajectory starts swimming away from some hit. Tried swimming backward from initial position and then initial step more likely to start toward the hits. This was not a panacea.

NOTES

working in /local/swim_quick on roentgen
damn: no push_front member function in vector
kludge: swim back and put farthest back point as first point on trajectory

original version:

swim_back version, single swim back point:

==========fit error = 1===========

MyTrajectory::doca: bad initialization of doca search: 0 1 648 26.6388 28.9513 66.7086
==========fit error = 1===========
= at event 90

Note that all of these are tough changes, e. g. event 70, which is in both configurations:

event_70

event 70, gives exception with non-bracketed minimum with or without swim-back method for trajectory

/home/scratch/build uses Makefile and a local file, setup.csh
How does new system differ from Makefile_halld?

  • Makefile_halld puts in the getarg fix if the fortran compiler is gfortran
  • Makefile_halld does the touch on hddm_s.h and .c
  • Makefile_halld makes the prod link in the “halld” directory
  • Makefile_halld needs correct definitions commented in/out when going from tagged versions vs. trunk
