Detailed Description

Task to determine the charged particle pseudo density from tracks and tracklets.

This class determines

\[ \left.\frac{d^2N_{ch}}{d\eta d\phi}\right|_{central} \]

from tracks and tracklets.

First, global tracks are investigated. The requirements on global tracks are

  • \( n_{TPC clusters} \ge 70\)
  • \( \chi^2_{TPC cluster} \le 4\)
  • No daughter kinks
  • Re-fit of TPC tracks
  • Re-fit of ITS tracks
  • No requirement on SPD clusters

Secondly, ITS stand-alone tracks are investigated. The requirements on ITS standalone tracks are

  • Re-fit of ITS tracks
  • No requirement on SPD clusters

Tracks that does not meet these quality conditions are flagged as rejected.

Both kinds of tracks (global and ITS standalone) have requirements on the distance of closest approach (DCA) to the interaction vertex \((v_x,v_y,v_z)\).

For tracks with SPD clusters:

  • \( DCA_{xy} < 0.0182+0.0350/p_t^{1.01}\)
  • \( DCA_{z} < 0.5\)

For tracks without SPD clusters

  • \( DCA_{xy} < 1.5(0.0182+0.0350/p_t^{1.01})\)
  • \( DCA_{z} < 0.5\)

Tracks that does not meet these DCA requirements are flagged as secondaries.

Thirdly, the number of SPD tracklets are investigated. If the tracklet is associated with a track, and that track has already been used, then that tracklet is ignored

An \((\eta,\phi)\) per-event histogram is then filled from these tracks and tracklets, and that histogram is stored in the output AOD event.

Furthermore, a number of diagnostics \(\eta\) histograms are filled:

  • \(\eta\) of all accepted tracks and tracklets
  • \(\eta\) of accepted global tracks
  • \(\eta\) of accepted ITS tracks
  • \(\eta\) of accepted SPD tracklets

At the end of the job, these histograms are normalized to the number of accepted events and bin width to provide an estimate of the \(dN_{ch}/d\eta\)

Only minimum bias events with a \(v_z\) within the defined cut are analysed.
