Something to discuss today: 1) look at my previous posting about generic MC fit 2) I started to look at data. These are the "blinded" plots (but don't do any subtraction from the number in the Urs presentation ;-) ): http://www.slac.stanford.edu/~daniele/vub/datablind.eps http://www.slac.stanford.edu/~daniele/vub/fitresults_nocatblind.eps (to be compared with the generic MC http://www.slac.stanford.edu/~daniele/vub/data.eps http://www.slac.stanford.edu/~daniele/vub/fitresults_nocat.eps) the shape for the background is pretty similar to the generic one and the result of the fit seems to be fine. The only problem is related to the "other" component which is negligible here. We have to study in detail this effect. 3) I calculated the extra correction due to the different efficiency of the cut on pstarof the lepton between Vub and Vcb events. The total correction factor is 1.137. I split the correction in two factors: different spectrum 1.09 wrong sign correlation due to cascades 1.04 4) the total number of events we have on data at the moment has large discrepancies with the one I got using CPFramework and objectivity reduced collections. We have to invetigate this problem (very high priority). 5) MC statistics: at the moment the Cocktail MC corresponds to ~350 fb-1 but if we require a coherent mixture of B0 and B+ this number becomes 160fb-1. Using the second sample to take the background shapes we introduce a large systematic effect (since the stat error is due mainly to the number of bkg events we could have a syst. effect that is not far from 50% of the stat error) Daniele On Thu, 14 Mar 2002, Urs Langenegger wrote: > > Hoi, > > we'll have a meeting on Friday, 03/15/02, at 8:00 am PST.
