Hello. Continuing slewing for global vertex counters, I finished ZDC slewing. From AuAu run, the typical resolution of ZDC vertex was about 3cm. Due to the hardware change in ZDC (PMTs and TDC (camac --> FastBus) ), the old slewing does not work well (or at all???) for dAu run. The vertex resolution from the current BRAT is about 6.5cm. This is shown in http://pii3.brahms.bnl.gov/~hito/zdc/zdcvertex_resolution_noslew_noycut.gif After slewing, it become about 3.4 cm. And, it is consistent with AuAu run. This is shown in http://pii3.brahms.bnl.gov/~hito/zdc/zdcvertex_resolution1.gif For skeptical forks (very small statistics in the previous figure), the next figure is made without a cut in y for track vertex to increase statistics (by junk???). Anyhow, you can see that the resolution is still about 3.7 cm. The figure is located at http://pii3.brahms.bnl.gov/~hito/zdc/zdcvertex_resolution2_noycut.gif (Next is Beam-beam counter) Hiro
