Agenda

1. PREX-2 runlist spreadsheet: [1] Github repo
   • PK: runlist is complete. We still need to validate the cuts.
   • PK: We still need to reset BCM cuts and the "blessed" dithering slopes and we need to put them into the respin. KP: we should document the decision making into making the cuts and the dithering slopes; we need to follow up soon so that we know we are doing the respin with a sensible set.
   • Run list: TY: we still have 30 slugs that are labeled with "NeedsCut" CG: we set the deadline for the WACs for next Monday to have everything fixed.
   • Paul should set up a set of scripts to be able to analyze PREX-2 runs on the adaq cluster, now that the data directory has changed.
2. Tao : additional combined plots looking at statistical self-consistency Git-repo
   • TY: will put pitt suggestions on haplog before proceeding with the analysis to wait for comments.
   • TY: integrated the single arm running into our statistics tables.
3. Weibin and Tao: table of cuts. [2]
   • (slide 5) KP: we should investigate the overlap between different BCMs (if they are). PK: everything we care about (that would be used for regression) should be global.
   • (slide 7) CC: the 10k lower limit was because the wire was messed up. It was still able to calculate position differences (?? needs investigation).
   • (slide 8-10) CP: maybe it was due to radiation damage. PK: there may some tuning of these for beam the excursions. CC: we repeated cuts when we had similar situations. PK: we should maybe move the upper and lower limits to +/- 10. CG: Leave these for respin2 where we'll start from scratch with the cut files.
   • (slide 14) CG: you need to find why certain runs have different values. WZ: will do.
4. Robert: pedestals
   • RR: looking at significant differences during the run to see which set of pedestals are better to use.
5. Victoria: beam modulation (raw data quality, residuals)
   • CG: will follow-up with Victoria to make sure we document the decision making process.
6. Devi: blinded tubes
   • CG: will check in with Devi next week.
7. Devika BCM DDs:
   • DP: working on BCM double differences. We added 4 combined BCMs. The 2:1 weighted average for analog BCMs seems to produce the best resolution for most of the run. The first part of the run looks like the dg_ds is the best. DP: will upload slides to haplog with more explanation.
   • CP: the agg_DD has a factor of sqrt(2) in there? CC: it's defined as half as the sum of the analogs + the digital and divide that by two.
8. (Cameron?): analog BCM consistency during periods of oscillation
   • CC: will work with Devika to look at this.
9. Overloaded regression (Tao?)
   • TY: update working on farm. Will need to work with Robert to make sure output is sensible.
10. Multiplet plots:
    • CG: postponed for next week
11. stripline and cavity and complementary bpm resolution and performance.
    • CG: needs owner.
12. Regression analysis for CREX:
    • CC: updated the analysis chain to accept input parameter file so that we can easily look at SAMs. CG: please check with PREX2 data in prep for CREX.
