Hi all, here are a few plots for the PID systematics. Unfortunatly they only show that everything is in place but not perfectly working. It is a status report. Electrons: http://www.slac.stanford.edu/~menges/Vub/PID/r14b.2/PidLHElectronSelector_details.html Muons: http://www.slac.stanford.edu/~menges/Vub/PID/r14b.2/TightMuonMicroSelection_details.html Kaons: http://www.slac.stanford.edu/~menges/Vub/PID/r14b.2/TightKaonMicroSelection_details.html For our purpose (comapring the efficiencies in the PID control sample and our signal) only the plots under a) are interesting. These are the standard PID efficiency plots. The labels are not updated. All is MC, data means PID control sample, MC means Vub/Vcb signal. The third pot in a row is the most interesting one, it shows the ratio of efficiencies, which (as we expected) should be around 1. This is not the case at all. There are two things to notice: For all three selectors (e, m, k) the efficiency in our signal is below from what is expected from the PID control samples. The distributions for electrons and muons for the PID control samples do not really look what you would expect from the official PID webpages. Clearly there is something wrong. We can discuss this today and maybe somebody has a good idea.
