Status of the code (Catania code) Current version (with some changes with respect the original code, see next slide) of the coincidence code avaliable here: Documentation on the code is available here (thanks to Paola e Franco): orrelations.zip Analysis meeting, 13/04/20154

Changes in the code Analysis meeting, 13/04/20155 Coincidence tree added Coincidence output file added A tree with quality parameters for each telescope was added year,month,day,run,timeduration,ratePe rRun,rateHitPerRun,fractionGoodTrack A tree with the overlap time information for the two telescope was added year,month,day,run,run2,timeduration

Telesecope infos and DB Some information we think are needed to trace the status of the telescope: Distances between the chambers Angle w.r.t. Magnetic North (EST at 90 degrees) GPS coordinates (altitude) Material budget over the telescope Height of the bottom chamber from the ground Are we interested to have such information in a common place (DB?)? Analysis meeting, 13/04/20156

«good run» definition for coincidence studies Stability of the fraction of tracks with  2 < 10 Number of event per run >10000 Run rate within 20% of the telescope average rate (when conditions are fixed: voltage, number of active strips, …) This is a preliminary definition which is under investigation. Analysis meeting, 13/04/20157

Some quality checks available in the new version of the code Analysis meeting, 13/04/20158 (ratePerRun – rateHitPerRun - 2)/(ratePerRun - 2) GPS events 3 strips missing 2 strips missing 1 strip missing

Common strategy to measure several quantities (under discussion) Effective time in data acquisition (needed to extract the rate) Efficiency measurement Acceptance computation Analysis meeting, 13/04/20159

Request to the analysis group MC is needed to compute acceptance and expected rates  waiting for Fabrizio’s talk Telescope info in the DB? Special request: is it possible to have the GPS information visible in the first page of the DAQ software (currently is in the 3 rd tab). This may help to check that GPS is really in the DAQ chain.
