Notes
Andrey
GCR rate study presentation (see link above)
Questions/comments
(Mark) Note that pessimistic assumption (no interactions at all allowed) approx. doubles collection time (eg 60d for Fe)
(Fred) Can Andrey's code work with protons as well? This will help characterize MIP finder
(Richard) Are events going through trigger/filter?
(Sasha) Default is all triggered events, no filter
(Benoit) Can compare xsecs you get to those in GEANT4
Patrick
Filter study presentation (see link above)
Discussion cut off by vrvs problems
Claudia
See link above to proposed GCRrecon structure
Claudia will send out similar structure for MIP finder (for comparison)
Discussion of how GCRrecon talks to GCRselect
(Fred) Since flow chart specifies a root file between the two processes, is it possible to read only part of the information from each row?
(Sasha) Can select by branch so maybe not...
(Mark) Could make main path via TDS rather than file, with file write and read optional. Latter so that TKR recon will not have to be run every time you test a new select algorithm
(Sasha) Don't necessarily use TDS, but rather "intermediate" classes that all TDS classes mirror. Algorithm could read from file, write to intermediate class. RootAnalysis is an example of how this works
Fred
GSI analysis needs clarification of high-statistics runs
Worked on GSI simulation, using Thierry's GSI geometry. All installed, ready to run. Install was well documented
