Inner Detector Tracking Performance

Introduction

"Inner Detector Tracking Performance" is a "forum" for bringing together various groups:

• ID Software
• Physics and Combined Working Groups
• Validation, ID Alignment and Calibration, Data Prep, etc

The aim is to

• understand,
• monitor and
• improve the ID performance.

Communication

See ID Tracking Performance HyperNews forum.

Meetings

• 7 June 2007 Trigger-Physics Week.
  First Meeting: to understand: "What is going on, what is needed and how do we move forwards?"

Inner Detector Tracking Performance - for ATLAS Paper

• Complete paper ~250 pages (resp Daniel Froidevaux)
• ID TrackPerf ~6 pages (resp Markus Elsing & Stephen Haywood)
• ID Alignment ~3 pages (resp Jochen Schieck)
• Inner Detector (detector, not performance) (resp Allan Clark)

Timetable

1. Informal Meeting of Contributors
2. First Draft of Performance sections to be reviewed by Physisc Coordination 5 Sep
3. Complete Paper ready for review mid-Oct
4. Publish early Dec

Some random comments:

• Use CSC Datasets and Rel 12.0.6 (or later).
• Parametrise resolutions as A ++ B/pT (and tabulate in b/u doc).
• Publications Committee for Root Macro.
• Cuts from ID TDR
