Background rates for CD3 geometry
Hi Matt (et al),
I have actually just in the last day or so used your bkgStudy code
to produce some rate plots for the FDC, CDC, and TOF using the old and
new geometries. The ones from the old geometry seem more or less
consistent with the result you showed at the Jan 16, 2007 offline
meeting. The new ones show a significant reduction due to the reduced
material in the tracking chambers. I believe these will be sufficient
for this week's review so don't kill yourself producing new plots. At
some point later on though, it would be good to revisit this in a more
systematic way.
Regards,
-David
