Muon Tracking Slides 9-May-2001

I ran FakeEv under cdf2sim generating 2000 positive and 2000 negative muons with from 30 to 37 degree range in theta, from 2 to 30 GeV pt, and from 20 to 40 degrees in phi. Of the negative muons 1802 had an IMUS stub (inefficiency is understood) and of those 1326 were linked with a track. Of the positive muons 1768 had an IMUS stub and of those 1314 were linked with a track. This gives an IMUS stub a 74% chance of linking.

There is a dependence on initial track eta. Tracks were generated uniformly in eta from .8 to 1.6.

I need to check to see if all the calorimeters are in place here. The Pt seems to quit at about 1.5 GeV, dropping off starting at about 1.8 GeV.

With better statistics: 5000 muons of each type gives 4377 negative stubs and 3222 satisfactory links, and 4384 positive stubs with 3213 satisfactory links. 73.6 +- 1.7% for negative, 73.3 +- 1.7% for positive muons linking stubs with COT tracks. This means we lose about 27% of the COT tracks in this region.
