Designing a detector – the basics
What we need to know: The types of particles produced in electron-ion collisions Multiplicity of particles Where these particles go after a collision (angle and direction) The momentum/energy these particles have
Proton Electron
Scattered Electron
Particle X

Event Generators
We get this information from computer simulations or “event generators”

create output data distributions that mimic what is seen in real experiments

Dealing with data
RAPGAP output read/organized into data trees using codes or “macros” in C++/ROOT Variables organized into a
tree structure, allowing for simplified inspection of data
4
Trees are read by other custom
macros to produce plots

Deep Inelastic Scattering vs. Diffractive Scattering(in a nutshell)
RAPGAP simulates both processes Important to understand differences in data
Diffractive Scattering:Proton remains intact during the collision, “rapidity gap” in which
no particles are ejected
Deep Inelastic Scattering (DIS):Electron interacts with a parton inside
proton, is scattered at angle θe with energy Ee’, proton fragments

Kinematic Variables of DIS
Center-of-Mass Energy (CME) is square root of “s”

energy balance becomes more symmetric For diffractive: majority of pions at easily
accessible angles, either forward or backward depending on proton/electron energy 18

Calculating “t” in RAPGAP
![Page 21: Center-of-Mass Energy - Phenix](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022021021/6204936b4b1be21e4726dc09/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
What is t?
Diffractive kinematicsMandelstam variable “t”:t = (p3 – p1)2 = (p4 - p2)2
ALWAYS NEGATIVE
?
p1
p3
p2 p4
t calculated from rho-gamma*
t calculated from P’-P
When Mx is exclusive vector meson (rho), (p3 – p1)2 can be used
Otherwise, we must use information from the the outgoing and initial proton, (p4 - p2)2
21
![Page 22: Center-of-Mass Energy - Phenix](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022021021/6204936b4b1be21e4726dc09/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
What we get from RAPGAP:
Using p-p vertex, many positive “t” values even though it is defined to be negative
“t” from p-p and gamma-rho vertices do not correlate, even at high precision
22
![Page 23: Center-of-Mass Energy - Phenix](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022021021/6204936b4b1be21e4726dc09/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)

The problem:
There appears to be an inherent bug in RAPGAP that affects exclusive vector meson events!!
In the next talk, Peter Schnatz will show how this bug is not apparent in data from PYTHIA, another MC generator similar to RAPGAP
