Muon Momentum Scale and Resolution for VBTF meetings

SiStrip Tracker Calibration, Local Reconstruction and Simulation meetings (as convener)

2011-01-20 Highlights: Pedestal O2O completed.
2011-02-03 Highlights: First results on dE/dx for the latest rereco.
2011-02-17 Highlights:
- Gaelle, HLT Monitoring:
  tool from HLT group: HLTMon. It will create an HLTSummary directory in the root file with 3 histograms:
  - 1 number of events passing the bits
  - 2 correlation between bits
  - 3 efficiency for the bits (plot 1 normalized to event number)
  HLT_L1_Tech seems to be as efficient as the BSC technical trigger (the one used now). The BSC might disappear sometime soon, so the L1_Tech should be considered to replace it.
- Marc, Status of O2O: scripts for automatization almost ready (timing is a little more complicated).
- Rebeca: the LA producer is almost ready.
- 2011-03-03 Highlights:
  - Loic: Low dE/dx events seem to be ghosts from previous bunch crossing. They are all not in collision (!BPTX) and always follow a collision.
  - Marco Cardaci: Overview of spy data analysis
  - Claude: Plans for dE/dx developments in simulation
  - Michael: Prototype of ClusterSummary ready
  - Rebeca: LorentzAngle mode switch ready (last test: check the results of reco with old and new code) </ul>
  - 2011-03-17 Highlights:
    - Lorentz Angle: restart of the analysis, fruitful discussion. It is not clear which method can give the best measurement (if any).
    - Stephan Lohr: Results of cluster threshold analysis: recommendation for new thresholds that can be used in the reconstruction.
    - Mark Zoeller: update on O2O status. Pedestals O2O still problematic with 64bits.
    - Timothy Polka: Validation of latest releases is fine. No problems to report. </ul>
    - 2011-03-31 Highlights:
      - Mehdi Karim: Detailed analysis of beam background events and low multiplicity events. The results are of interest also for the Tracker DPG/Tracking POG meeting, so we asked to present them at the next meeting.
      - Gabriele Benelli: Fast O2O has a first working prototype. Being setup for shadow mode (will run after a normal o2o). After a period of tests and if everything is fine it can be switched as the default o2o. </ul>

        Thierry: Effect of cluster cleaning on LA measurement
        
        Gavril: the cluster splitting improves efficiency and fake-rate for high Pt tracks but worsens for low Pt tracks.
      - 2011-07-21 Highlights:
        
        Andreas: Effect of depletion voltage on LorentzAngle
