Time resolution of DESCANT detectors #90

Open akanksha-sing opened 1 month ago

akanksha-sing commented 1 month ago

Hello. I am looking to see where the time resolution of DESCANT detectors is implemented. I am using NTuple2EventTree and I did see fResolution for all the detectors, but I am unsure if that is the time resolution. I am talking about the following line in the file Settings.cc.

fResolution[8010][detector-20].push_back(TF1(Form("Descant.Blue.%d.Resolution",detector), Form("(TMath::Sqrt((%f+%f*x+%f*x*x+%f*x*x*x)))/(2.*TMath::Sqrt(2.*TMath::Log(2.)))",offset, linear, quadratic, cubic),0.,100000.));

Any help regarding this is appreciated.

I think that is the energy resolution, not timing resolution. I don't think we apply any timing resolution in the NTuple2EventTree program.

I thought so too. I have also been looking at the detector simulation codes, but I didn't find the timing resolution being implemented there. I have been working on TOF plots and I just want to find out what the resolution is, if it is being applied anywhere. Any other suggestions will be helpful.

Thanks!
