FL can probe the gluon distributions…..

• Nucleon structure Nucleon structure composed of singlet composed of singlet (gluons, sea) and non-(gluons, sea) and non-singlet (valence) singlet (valence) distributionsdistributions

In Conclusion…

• No L/T separated resonance region (large x) data on deuterium currently

• Impossible to extract high precision moments

• Compare to lattice

• FL to access singlet

Calibrations

BCM calibration A new BCM calibration script is written based on

C++/ROOT.

Drift Chamber and TOF calibration The calibration is done by one command, just run a batch

job and result is ready, quality is checked by examining the PS files produced after calibration.

Calorimeter calibration Gas Cerenkov calibration

Particle Identification

Most background come from negative pions.

Calorimeter and Gas Cerenkov are used to reject these

pions.

HMS

P=0.44 GeV,

Θ=75 degree

Rejection factor is

100:1.8

Background subtraction

Electrons produced from charge-symmetric

πo and γ production and decay are background

for us. For this purpose special runs are taken

with HMS at positive polarity.

Since the background is charge-symmetric, it

allows to count the number of positrons and

subtract it from our data.

Acceptance calculation

Acceptance is calculated for each Θ-W2 bin. Number of Θ bins is fixed, 20 bins. Size of the W bin is 0.04 GeV2.
