    keyword=BB Cerenkov ADC vs MWDC postion, vice versa

    Figures 1, 2, 3 are from run 3713 (1 uA, optics target).
    Figure 4 is from run 3588 (6 uA, 3He target).
    Figure 5 is from run 3587 (1 uA, 3He target).
    
    Cerenkov ADC pedestals have been roughly aligned to channel 200 rather
    than zero to watch for below-ped weirdness in the spectra.
    
    Cuts applied to all histograms include:
        cut1 = Form("(!DL.edtpl)");
        cut1 += Form("&&(DL.evtypebits&1<<1||DL.evtypebits&1<<6)");
        cut1 += Form("&&(abs(BB.tr.vz)<0.18)");
        cut1 += Form("&&(BB.ts.ps.e>500)");
    
    Figure 1: MWDC x vs. y with no cut on Cerenkov ADC.
    Figure 2: MWDC x vs. y with cut on (ped subtracted) Cerenkov ADC > 50.
    Figure 3: Cerenkov ADC with
        red:  'shower row sum' cuts similar to Sh+Cer trigger set up.
               The shower row sums don't seem to be gain-matched though, so
               don't read much into the red curves.
       blue:  position cuts extracted from Figure 2.
    
    Beam-right ADC show some promise.  Beamline side still has a lot of garbage.
    
    Still working on a sensible 'electron' cut for BB singles.  I need to ask
    the experts a bunch of questions this afternoon.
