Hi all, as a starting point for the inclusive analysis, let me revive some topics which emerged from a discussion we had at SLAC in July between Daniele, Virginia, Roberto, Alessia and myself. Some of them are already being dealt with, some need to be addressed (and some need maybe to be discarded). Talk to you later, Concezio. 1) selection of the best B candidate: should it be based on the BRECO side only or on the whole event? We should try to minimize the inefficiency of this procedure. 2) Kinematic fit: use VtxTreeFitter, technically implemented, needs debugging. After that, evaluate and compare it with the old kinematic fitter. 3) MC truth: to be implemented (Roberto?) 4) MC truth: should we implement MC matching on the BReco side and compute efficiencies from that? At the moment, we determine efficiencies from mES fits, which might be inaccurate in some corners of the phase space. 5) New analysis cuts? (e.g. a-la-Urs/Ed) 6) Use some vertexing info on the recoil? (e.g. chisquare, impact parameters, etc.) 7) charm veto by partial reconstructing D*lnu (both D*+ and D*0). Ed's code has been implemented in VubRecoilUser by Virginia, needs debugging. 8) redo optimization studies (missing momentum, lepton momentum, etc.) 9) PID/trk/neutral killing/reweighting: to be implemented. Are we happy with the old implementation? Can we do better? 10) Mixing correction: to be implemented. 11) systematics. With 80ifb some of them were at the level of educated guesses and sometimes very conservative, e.g. for (mx,q2) we quote 7% due to binning. With 250ifb we should try to do better. 12) are we happy with the current skim? Do we need a reskim?
