A set of water properties inputs reliable for study:

• AIM production of the absorption and scattering spectrum for different water models for muons and neutrinos-antineutrinos, in agreement to the water models proposed for the data/MC CALIBOB comparison for optical beacon data (J Ruiz-Rivas, Collaboration Meeting in Paris 2010).

• Ten different water models (two runs each, just for a first approach) for muons and neutrinos-antineutrinos (20 files for muons, 20 files for neutrinos and 20 files for antineutrinos).

Methodology: runs selection, lifetime computations and weights

1. Data subsample: “Point source search with 2007 and 2008 data” (ANTARES-PHYS-2010-008).

3. Lifetime and weights for MC:

• Lifetime for muons: 2*8320/86400 = 0.19 days.

• Weights for neutrinos-antineutrinos: w3*(1.0/2*1.0e+10).

• 1044 files (12 lines detector) [08/05/2008-30/12/2008].

• Lifetime data: 76.77 days.

• ntuples from JP Gomez-Gonzalez (thanks!!!).

2. MC sampling:

• SoS file prepared by C Bogazzi (thanks!!!) from the data subsample (noise_basic_harold.root): time slices taken from all different acquisition conditions.

• Mupage for muons.

• Geasim for neutrinos-antineutrinos.

Thanks to Annarita and Carla also for the codes used as starting point and their support !!!

Thanks also to Patrick, Maarten and Aart from NIKHEF for their help about software details !!!

“Self-computed” water tables + Same SoS file 1 mupage file for abs = 63 m @ 470 nm

Remarks:

1.Water tables produced by Annarita to Juan Pablo and the mine ones, are equivalent .

2.Reproducibility of the simulation chain and equivalence among scripts are OK.

3.Run-dependent simulations (ANTARES-PHYS-2010-008) Agreement MC / data should be independent of the SoS file MC Sampling with a SoS file based on 2008 data subsample. Data/MC comparisons with the same data subsample.

What kind of information do we have?

1. Reconstructed data:

AAFit v0r8 to avoid bug alignment in V0R6: alignment “isvalid” issue (ELOG 521/527).

2. Reconstructed MC (muons + neutrinos-antineutrinos):

AAFit v0r6 Not affected by the below bug founded (obviously).

3. Reconstructed data + MC:

• Absorption + scattering info:

• Reconstruction quality parameter.

• Number of hits used in the fit.

• Total amplitude of the hits used in the fit.

• Zenith distributions.

• Etc…(backup).

• Scattering info Time information from time residuals computed from muon tracks.

• Lack of muon events for some cases STATISTICS DEPENDENT (few runs to compare) Huge ratios (-6<<-5.5).

• Well reconstructed in general, except some extremes models which could be discarded (blue and blue sky curves: sca~22 m).

• Muons tracks quality doesn’t seem enough affected by the scattering length within ~ 58 % of confidence for ≥ 0.11.

• Neutrinos tracks quality is more sensitive to the scattering length, around 23 % of confidence, for reasonable models.

Number of hits summary:

1.An increased abs fit better to peaks, but a reduced abs fit better to tails.

2.The best models which could be fit to data: 63/41/0.11, 55/53/0.17 and 55/41/0.11.

3.Extreme scattering models (sca=22 m) experience the worst agreement to data, except for the very delayed photons (N > 80).

• The extreme blue and blue sky curve model could be discarded.

• Most of neutrino events are lost close to the horizon (cos≈ 0; 90º), and most of them arrive perpendicular to the detector (cos≈ 1; 0º).

• For down-going muons there is a reasonable agreement for the selected model 63/41/0.11. Not enough up-going muons probably due to the reduced MC data sample to compare, this effect is seen some values before cos < 0.

• The extreme grey and red curves models could be discarded.

• The reduced MC data sample in the neutrino region restricts the comparison.

• A similar shape is seen for ratios for down-going muons for the founded “best models”, but once again, a mass production can be proper to explain the lack of statistics for cos > -0.1 for up-going muons and up-going neutrinos.

Time residuals for the detector lines (thit - texp): tracks

Arrival time of photons is expressed relative to the expected (theoretical) arrival time (texp) which can be computed from the muon tracks parameters: resulting time residuals (r). The true arrival time (thit) could be change due to photons emitted from secondary electrons being their path influenced by the scattering.

CONCLUSIONS AND OUTLOOKCONCLUSIONS AND OUTLOOKCONCLUSIONS AND OUTLOOKCONCLUSIONS AND OUTLOOK

ANTARES Collaboration Meeting ANTARES Collaboration Meeting Moscow, Moscow, JuneJune 06 06thth-10-10thth28

1. A systematic data/MC comparison for optical properties studies has been presented for a reduced MC data sample.

2. The quality of a reconstructed track could not be affected unless the sca trends to increase to extreme values (~22 m). Contribution of Rayleigh scattering could be between 0.11 < < 0.17 and sca,eff ≈ 227 m.

3. An abs effect is expected for tracks ( and ), just close to the horizon looking at zenith angle. Muons and neutrino tracks coming from a large range of azimuth angle don’t seem to be enough affected due the scattering and absorption.

4. A general shift ~ 2 ns is seen for MC concerning to data reconstructed with v0r6 in time residuals distributions, a possible effect due to the “alignment bug”, software details or calibration constants? A reduced abs seems to fit better to data at a peak level, instead a slightly better agreement is seen for tails for a increased abs try time residuals on AAFit v0r8.

5. How much the correct model could matters? The best models which fit to data are founded for 63/41/0.11, 55/53/0.17 and 55/41/01.11. but it has to be confirmed for a mass production (done up to KM3 level). Time residuals points to a reduced absorption length model.

6. A tentative “to do list”: reconstructed and no reconstructed data

7. Number of hits in the trigger, total number of hits in the event, arrival time of the hit on the PMT, before and after trigger, detector performance: expect impact on effective areas, detector angular resolution and sensitivity studies, test on BBFit? Review to the reconstruction PDF for influence of scattering and else?
