GMT Physics Track position correlation

 It is now clear to me that low ADC values correspond to correlated noise between the strips and pads.

  • RT Ticket 2561: TPC efficiency vs. pT

     In response to RT ticket 2561, I wrote a simple Monte Carlo to test the effect of the TPC geometry on efficiency vs.

    Run 12 pp510 BeamLine checks

    After the Run 12 pp510 BeamLine was re-calibrated this month, I did some checks.
