Dear all,
thanks for pointing out the bi-weekly meeting, I knew about it and for sure I’ll join the meeting to discuss about these and other issues. I thought that, given the CLAS meeting, the g12 meeting tomorrow was not present - I already have another meeting for tomorrow at that time.

I’ll join in two weeks from now.

Thanks again

Andrea

>> I write you to inform that, after a long time passed after my PhD thesis defense, that included a (preliminary) analysis of the gamma p -> p pi0 eta reaction from CLAS-g12 data, I decided to resume this analysis, starting from scratch and following closely the g12 procedures highlighted in the official g12 note. In the analysis, I am identifying pi0 and eta via the gamma-gamma decay.

Now, given the huge improvements in g12 analysis that the g12 group did, I think it will be simpler to come to an end of the analysis.I’d like to inform you - just to double check if there is anyone else looking at this reaction.
>> I have just started the analysis, and I am in the phase of selecting a good sample of exclusive p pi0 eta events. Meanwhile, I also started MC generation. At some point in the next future, I’d like to show some progresses in one of the bi-weekly meetings, in order to get your feedback from this.
>> 
>> I already have a simple question regarding MC. I followed closely the procedures highlighted in the g12 note to generate a phase-space MC sample (I followed the procedures highlighted for "proton, pi+, pi-", not those for "electrons and positrons"). In the real data, if I plot the invariant mass of a photon pair, I see a pi0 peak at around 135 MeV. However, If I do the same for MC events, I see a peak at about 116 MeV. I also plotted the reconstructed photon energy over the generated photon energy, and I see a peak at around 0.87. It looks the simulation of EC response in MC is not completely correct. (I confirm that the peak for generated events is at 135 MeV)
>> Is it because, using the EC, I should follow the procedure highlighted for "electrons and positrons" (involving run number 10 and requiring setenv CLAS_CALDB_RUNINDEX calib_user.RunIndexg12_mk?)

In the note, the relevant method to use is: clas::g12::pass_g12_TOFKO(int sector, int scid, bool all_ko = 0), that requires to know the counter ID. For a charged particle, from the PART bank I can retrieve the entry in the TBID bank, and from this to the SCRC bank, that, however, contains information regarding TOF clusters. From this bank, I don't see a pointer to the SCR bank - containing individual paddles data.
