[Hps-analysis] [EXTERNAL] Re: SVT Vertex Analysis

I have chi2 plots for days. I believe a bias will be introduced if you have the beamspot in the incorrect position in z, and this bias manifests as the asymmetrical z distribution.

Also… any idea why the z-vertex distributions are so asymmetric: that seems fundamentally unhealthy.

The reason for the positron/electron asymmetry is I believe the acceptance effect that we discovered so long ago: positron tracks in this momentum range have to start out going in the electron direction and vice versa, and angular coverage on the positron side is much better in the front of the detector, relative to the electron side.

I believe that originates from FEEs on the positron side, so a first pass alignment without a momentum constraint might be needed there.

The positions of these wires are known to much higher precision than that of the tungsten target, and using both positron and electron tracks in the data should reduce the systematics and improve the precision of the vertex measurement. I have posted a new set of slides summarizing the current state of this analysis to https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__confluence.slac.stanford.edu_pages_viewpage.action-3FpageId-3D341254335-26preview-3D_341254335_341257564_20220323-5FSVTWireTargetVertexAnalysis-5FGraf-5FHPS-5FWeekly-5FMeeting.pdf&d=DwIF-g&c=CJqEzB1piLOyyvZjb8YUQw&r=JaSEOiNc_6InrJmbYDvKU2tZqhhONpIkbyl_AUnkDSY&m=yWlzPQBwmESPPcQstvFKILsocy0JboZh9EAtxD-1VxObwG0WdglQ4TGFSMQIRymG&s=P06gdv7ucr0NQZjgnIxPBzaTe7mJcDDoBCGudMFr4-I&e=  . There are a number of interesting features in the data but the most interesting feature for me is that the latest SVT geometry encapsulated in the HPS_Run2021Pass2FEE detector reconstructs the wire positions almost a centimeter downstream of their measured locations. I invite you to look at the slides and let me know if you have any questions or suggestions on how to improve this analysis.
