Cluster analysis (I)
Cluster definition: group of fired pixels sharing a common side
D. Elia, R. Santoro ALICE week / Offline meeting - March 15, 2004 8
Cluster analysis (II)
Cluster size: number of fired pixels in the cluster
D. Elia, R. Santoro ALICE week / Offline meeting - March 15, 2004 9
Cluster analysis (II)
Cluster size: number of fired pixels in the cluster
Cluster dimx,y: x and y dimensions of a box containing the cluster:
dimx

Alignment procedure (I)
Select events with 1 cluster in each of the minibus planes
Do alignment within each minibus by using best x/y coordinate for each of the planes

Resolution study (I)
Select events with 1 cluster in each of the minibus planes
Apply least squares fit by using the 4 minibus planes points with proper weights
Calculate residuals
on middle plane:
(x) = 110 m(y) = 21 m
D. Elia, R. Santoro ALICE week / Offline meeting - March 15, 2004 16
Resolution study (II)Selecting cluster size = 1on middle plane:
rms(x) = 127 m(y) = 21 m
(x) = 42 m(y) = 20 m
Selecting cluster size = 2on middle plane:

What next
Better understanding of alignment and resolution (geometrical simulation available)
Cluster analysis vs: threshold/bias/angle scans
Efficiency studies vs: threshold/bias/angle scans
Look at the HI data
