Run 68 Analysis Task List

Tasks necessary for Reprocessing
Task Notes Assignee Status
Start task list you're looking at it MF completed
Templates either construct or improve analytical parameters NM completed
Channel balancing method, time/dataset/energy dependence, calculate MF completed
Trigger mask? found out we don't have more than DCRC for trigger source AV completed
NaI timing windows optimize in processing AV completed
Series-dependent relative calibration do we want this? autoprocessing has the ability retired
ADC min/max, bin low priority. add to processing. unassigned
Sloped BS subtract? fancy, requires study. consider for later processing. NM postponed
OF settings Choose OF search window and whether OF algorithm should be modified NM completed
Add PT bs/bspost rqs Can do equivalent with existing rqs. retired
Deal with first-8-bin glitch zero out in trace during processing? dE<3 eV, probably doesn't matter. NM completed
Select/prioritize data what subset of data should be reprocessed? MF completed
Modify autoproc Allow input list of series to proc. (is this necessary?) AV retired
Channel balancing for other biases check -80V, -40V, +40V MF assigned
Further OF/template options? unassigned

Address Migdal Effect MF In Progress
Spectrum Goodness of Fit Chisq is sensible for comparing fits given measured spectrum. Also, generally chisq>1 when using stat uncertainty alone and <1 with systematics. NM In Progress
