Entry number 261054

Followups:

• 261065 02/14/09 03:52 D. Parno BB Acceptance with Trigger 6
• 261078 02/14/09 04:30 D. Parno Deposited-energy gap in BB shower rows

1. Plot of BB acceptance in dispersive direction using track x+ track theta. This is for T2 triggers. The large bump around x=-0.9 is mostly due to pion like events( this is top of the acceptance)

2. If one selects good electron by requiring large preshower signal, then the peak around x=-0.9 reduces significantly. So, for good electrons the acceptance looks reasonable with T2(plot2).

3. Acceptance in shower x direction is shown(plot3). If one look at the events around x= -0.9, they all have low preshower energy deposition(red in plot4) and look more like pions.

For good electrons I think the acceptance is reasonable, at least with T2. There were not many T6 triggers in the rootfiles that I was looking at. May be some one can do similar exercise to look at T6.
