Status Reports

Tamara showed plots plots of the centre of occupancy she obtained by requiring a 2 sigma noise cut and occupancy above 10%. She used a 3D touching neighbours clustering algorithm for her cell selection.
Richard suggested that it might be interesting to make a histogram of the number of cells selected/event, and the average distance of the selected cells to the occupancy centre.

Tayfun continued to look at beam chamber information. Given the position of the beam chambers and the F1,F2 scintillators, he determined whether or not the incoming particle trajectory passed through F1 and F2. When he requires that F1 and F2 have been hit, the strong tails in (x,y) of the shower barycenter in the calorimeter disappear.

Margret had tried to look at the phi structure of the EMEC, but found out that she had made a mistake in her approach.
