    keyword=Cerenkov efficiency

    Following up on the cerenkov efficiency tests that Charles did, we took the plotted the cerenkov x and y projections with and without the time cuts and also plotted the ratio of these.

    Figure 1 includes runs 7645-7655 taken before Charles decreased the Cerenkov thresholds and Fig 2 includes runs 8430-8445 taken after the thresholds decrease.

    Definition of cuts:
    TCut cGoodVDC = "L.tr.n==1&&abs(L.tr.x)<1.";
    TCut cGoodAngles = "abs(L.tr.tg_th)<0.1&&abs(L.tr.tg_ph)<0.05";
    TCut cTarget = "abs(L.tr.tg_y)<0.1";
    TCut cCleanTrk = cGoodVDC&&cGoodAngles&&cTarget;
    TCut ctime = "abs(D.CerInT3-2300)<500";
    TCut certrx="L.cer.trx<1.5&&L.cer.trx>-1.5";
    TCut certry="L.cer.try<0.4&&L.cer.try>-0.4"

    In Both figures,
    Plot 1: T->Draw("L.cer.asum_c",goodprl&&cCleanTrk&&certrx);
    Plot 2: T->Draw("L.cer.trx>>xfull",goodprl&&cCleanTrk&&certrx);
    T->Draw("L.cer.trx",goodprl&&cCleanTrk&&ctime&&certrx,"same");
    Plot 3:hratio->Divide(hsome,hfull);
    hratio->Draw();
    Plot 4: T->Draw("L.cer.try>>yfull",goodprl&&cCleanTrk&&certry);
    T->Draw("L.cer.try",goodprl&&cCleanTrk&&ctime&&certry,"same");
    Plot 5: hratio->Divide(hsome,hfull);
    hratio->Draw();
    Plot6:
    T->Draw("L.cer.trx:L.cer.try",goodprl&&cCleanTrk&&ctime&&certrx&&certry)

    It is seen from comparing the two figures that before the threshold change, the ratio is not constant, besides being ~0.9. After the change, the ratio is almost 1 and also constant.

    Charles decreasing the threshold did the trick.
