July 3th Here is a summary of the dca (signed dca and dca in Z). I present also the pull, defined as dca/sigma(dca) vs pt, 1/pt.

P06ib

No svt,ssd hits.

P06ic

P06id

This is for the first P06id : tracks are selected with (svt+ss hits >=2 ).
According to the gaps of the svt, I look only in the range in phi where there are at least 2 svt hits.

pull

For each column, the 3 cases correspond to the tracks with 2,3 and 4 (svt+ssd) hits

Comparing with ssd only (CuCu62)

Then I looked for tracks with only ssd hits.
Again , the range in phi is shown in the next pictures, since of there were 2 ssd ladders off.

pull

Then I look at tracks above differents tracks :

Plots

Figure : pull > 1 Figure : pull > 2 Figure : pull > 3
In these plots , the number of events is in Y and the number of tracks in this event,which passed the cut is in X.

Pt

Figure : pull > 1 Figure : pull > 2 Figure : pull > 3
In these plots , the pt of the previous tracks are shown.

cucu200 bis

I didn't look first at the dca vs phi to see the corrections from this production.
In fact, the coverage in phi seems to be better now .

Then I look at tracks above differents tracks :

In these plots , the number of events is in Y and the number of tracks in this event,which passed the cut is in X.

the Dca vs pt was fitted by sqrt((a/p_t)^2 + b); it gives a better approximation than a/p_t;
The Dca vs inv pt was fitted by a pol2, but it doesn't give a better result than a pol1 , as I saw for the Dca in XY for the SSD only.
