  • Presented working plans in heavy ion fortnightly meeting. Collaborate with Prashant in Mumbai for this QM.(SecondaryJpsi_12_Oct_07)

    Ji Hyun - L1/L2 triggering

    Prashant - Secondary Vertexing

  • The reason for studying B->J/Psi events
    • Surprising results from RHIC
      • Heavy quarks(especially b quarks) were predicted to lose less energy than the light quarks.
      • Significant suppression of the yields of heavy-quark decay electrons at high pT.
    • Expectations at LHC
      • Charm & bottom production cross sections are much larger than at RHIC.
      • Effects of energy loss on b quarks can be studied with greater precision.

• 22 Oct 2007
  • Started studying Pythia generator
    • How to use pythia in cfgs
    • Investigated examples in Configuration/Examples/data
      • SimExample?.cfg, DigiRecoExample?.cfg.
