QCD MeetingJuly 1, 2005
Is it due to the hard collision?
Is it due tofragmentation?
Strong polarization seenin fixed-target experimentswhere jet NOT observed.

Status and Plans
Three known contributions to dataset: -- Signal -- Ks Background -- Continuum 2-track background
Previous report: -- From data, measured relative fractions of these as functions of momentum and decay distance.
Run 1 computer – cdfsga – to be shutdown -- Verified that data written by it are correct -- Ran all data through cdfsga, copied to Rutgers -- Thanks to Glenn Cooper and Mike Stolz.
Now working with 100% of data at Rutgers!!! -- Real data look reasonable. -- x20 MC is working to a first approximation.
Reconstruction: p and

11 Mass-constrained fits: 2-, 2-Ks, 1-ee.11 Sum of weights over solutions = 1.0 per event.11 Use 2 = 2(MassConstraint) - 2(NoMassConstraint)11 Determine relative proportions of , Ks and background5. Modify 2nd stage analysis code to mix MC samples from , Ks, in correct proportions. 6. Finish all work on cdfsga.7. Do polarization study in all three coordinate systems.9. Is polarization analysis believable?
