Charge to the Task Force

The task force will determine the zero-suppression threshold for the calorimeter readout. In order to fully understand the consequences of the zero-suppression threshold the Monte Carlo should be tuned to observed calorimeter energy and multiplicity distributions. Simulated data and collider data should be used to optimize the reconstruction and properties of physics objects as a function of threshold. Selection of the threshold will also require an understanding of the L3 processing time and the data set size at L3 and off-line all as a function of threshold.

Specifically, the task force should:

  1. Characterize the calorimeter performance on the cell level.
  2. Characterize particle identification (such as energy response and resolution) as a function of threshold.
  3. Tune the Monte-Carlo to the data at the cell and physics object levels.
  4. Understand the consequences of the threshold level on L3 computing and data size and offline data size.
  5. Recommend a zero-suppression threshold.
The task force will report to the spokespersons. A preliminary recommendation should be available by October 15th and a final report by January 15, 2003.
