Automatic BSMD-E, -P   relative calibration and status tables. 

The second pass through both SMDE, SMDP was performed, learning from previous mistakes.

Main changes:

Automatic QA of BSMD-P minB spectra.

 Hi all;
 I've put some results from the latest electrostatic
calculations for the WSC at:

Goal : predict BSMD-E relative gain corrections for every eta bin 

Method : find average slope per eta slice, fit gauss, determine average slope : avrSlope(iEta)

Automatic QA of BSMDE minB spectra.

Here are some additional tests that have occured to me, in no particular order:

Some conclusions and general suggestions, some based on the data, some on general principles:

Version 1 of relative gains for BSMDE, d-AU 2008.

INPUT: 3M d-AU events from day ~336 of 2007.

Method: fit slopes to ADC =ped+30,ped+100.

 Input: 500K d-Au events from run 8336052,

Method : drop CAPS 123,124,125, subtract single ped for all other CAPS.

 Study of pedestal correlation for BSMDE

Goal: identify source of the band below main pedestals. 

 This page provides more details addressing some of Will's questions.

 Glimpse of relative calibration of BSMDE from 2008 d+Au data

Input: 1M dAu minb events from runs: 8335112+8336019

 Goals:

1. verify pedestals loaded to DB are reasonable for 2008 pp data
2. estimate stats needed to find slopes of individual strips for minB events

 Notes,

Now trying tests with IOperf
