  1. Status updates
    1. Chris: Tools in FastJet/SpartyJet Work on these is ongoing; hope to have something written up for next week
    2. Jay: Benchmark signals See link and ongoing emails; should have this worked out for next week
    3. Stefan: Sherpa samples Background samples are generated but not validated yet. Will need space! (See below.)
    4. Marcel: jet_substructure.pdf: Detector modeling See attached slides. Marcel has been doing a lot of work understanding various detector effects on substructure, and is willing to incorporate this work into our write-up. Goal: "make hundreds of plots, and when you understand them, you can summarize them in a few". Important thing is try to understand one effect at a time, not all of them at once.
  2. Misc: The question of how to deal with generating/subtracting "realistically" pile-up came up again. Marcel argued that just adding pile-up with no subtraction attempts would be sufficient to see the important effects (Marcel, correct me if I'm mischaracterizing...). He promised to try to find someone to be in charge of this study.
  3. How to start making comparisons?
    1. Where to put code (SVN), plots (wiki), samples (?) Code goes in SVN, plots go on the wiki. Chris will try to work out where we can put events; 1st check is UW.
    2. Who wants to work on this?
      1. My suggestion: assign each signal/"signal class" to one person Will assign next week when we're ready to start working.
    3. What else needs to happen before we can get started? No suggestions here: tools and samples are the bottlenecks.
  4. Time frame/plan going forward
    1. What is our schedule? No firm deadline set. OK, no deadline at all. Maybe once we get started and have a better sense of where things are going.
    2. Should this be a standalone paper? We decided to wait to see how long the rest of the paper takes. If they're ready to go and we want more time, we can decide whether to split off.
