cuts in the hit errors calibration procedure
Procedure for finding TPC hit errors uses following creteria to select tracks:
Global tracks
Number of the fit points >=25
|1/Curvature| <=1./200
|Pt/cos(Dip)|>=0.5
Since in the recent data amount of pile-up tracks is significatly higher compared to the times when the calibration procedure was developed.
It may be usufull add some cuts to suppress pile-up tracks. Some suggestions:
Use only gloabal tracks associated to primary tracks from the best vertex. Restrict Z position of the primary vertex.
Please find below the effect of the requirement mHitsG.mVertex==1
no vertex restrictions
