Radphi Conference Call 2/22/02

February 22, 2002
University of Connecticut
Storrs, CT

Present: Craig, Richard, Dan, Phil, Mihajlo, Elton.

Dan:

• has no new pictures, working on re-merging of clusters. He had a plan to attach split-offs at clustering level, but gave up after looking at clustering code. So now he wants to work at the cluster level to re-merge things, then refit and calculate cluster parameter.
• Craig suggested keeping the original cluster configuration, and add new reconstructions as new group in the event.
• R.J suggested keeping more than two possible cluster lists - variable-length list. Each group gets stored with a "confidence level".

• was concerned about reliability of Monte Carlo to give shower shapes. Scott found a good sample of real data and got an estimate of shower size that is somewhat wider then MC, but not very different.
• R.J. will ask for a copy of Baltay's student's thesis, to get a reference on PSF technique.
• Here is the pointer to PSF page.
