  • Use 12C "white" spectra to get maximum coverage of planes, take 250K events.

  1. Check the timing and calibration constants (shower ADC gains, pedestals, timing offsets, pulse height corrections, attenuation lengths, efficiencies, position dependencies).
  2. VDCs and Straw Chambers (Yang Wang)
    * Fit for new time-to-distance map
    * Look at drift time spectra, is the shape reasonable? in the right time range?
    * Look at focal plane distributions.
    * Check fiducial tracking efficiency, is it > 95%, If not, then check TDC windows and tracking parameters.
  3. HRS Scintillators (Barak Schmookler)
    * Look at all channels, compare against standard histograms.
    * Are any channels firing at high rate (possible light leak)?
