Qweak Inelastic ElasticRates-vs-QTOR simulated.png

Ratio of Elastic to Inelastic Rates = [math]\frac{650 MHz}{20 MHz}[/math] = 32.5:1 = Rate ratio QTOR=100% / 75%

Aluminum Asymetry

The Aluminum asymmetry was measured to be [math]1.61 \pm 0.16[/math] PPM

0.2 MHz/nA using warm gas target

Warm gas contribution about same size as downstream aluminum window.

To do aluminum measurement we can't use warm gas cell.


Aluminum window dilution 0.022+/- 0.002

Asym -vs- QTOR

From Logbook entry https://qweak.jlab.org/elog/Analysis+%26+Simulation/254

200

The inelastic region of interest is expected to line up o the quartz bars when QTOR ~ 0.85 of its value for elastics.

In Feb 2011, QTOR(elastic) = 8921.

=> QTOR(Delta) = 0.85 \times 8921 = 7582

Combining 2 hour of data taking

QTOR= 6700 Amps

I_{beam} = 145 \mu A


[math]A_{raw} = 1.296 \pm 0.579[/math]= Asymmetry averaged over all Main Detectors


If I assume only having 50 \mu A then I would need to take 6 hours of data to get the same statistic as above.

If I take a week of data at 50 \muA then that would correspond to 28 runs like the above.

So the uncertainty would be reduced by [math]\sqrt{28} = 5.29[/math] The measurement would have an uncertainty of 0.579/sqrt{28} = 0.1 PPM

Data Analysis

getting Qweak data from the Silo

jcache -g hallc /mss/hallc/qweak/rootfiles/pass0/*run number here*

looking for GOOD runs in database

There is a GUI interface on cdaql4 which can be run to look at run numbers and see their quality as recorded in the data base.


On cdaql4 run

./good_for_GUI

Root file format

The Qweak root files contain 2 trees ( MPS_Tree and EL_Tree). As the names suggest, the MPS tree contains data from devices for each Helicity bin. The HLS tree constructs helicity differences and asymmetries for each device in the data stream.

The devices listed in each tree above are folders which have sorted the data into 4 time windows within the helicity gate.

In the MPS_Tree there is a Bock0, Block1, Block2, Block3.
