FMS Run List
  List of good runs: http://www.star.bnl.gov/protected/spin/dilks/trgmon13/500/runs.html
  The bad part of F17600 was removed and the good part (last 14 runs)
   now has corrected spin pattern and is included
   (see https://drupal.star.bnl.gov/STAR/files/userfiles/3475/spin_pwg_12-05-2013_updated(3).pdf, slide 14-5)
 

Spin Ratio (# same spin bXings / # diff spin bXings):
  (vs. run)  (vs. fill)  (vs. bXing)

Empty bXings --> Clean up and spinbit equalization
The fill dependence pdf files reveal some bunches that are empty according to scalers, but filled according to CDEV;
these bunches were flagged and omitted from analysis. Click here for details

"spinbit equalized" plots show the result of randomly removing the minimum number of bunches such that there are 
equal number of ++, +-, -+, -- bunches considered for analysis; spinbit equalization is not necessary for asymmetry
analysis, but it was originally done to look for any 'hidden' pathologies in the relative luminosity analysis
