Minimum Bias data/simulation EMC cluster invariant mass

     With 70MeV threshold, I use run08 pp minimum bias data (run list in attachment 1) and pp MB sample for run08 (EEMC uncorrected geometry) to reconstruct #pi^{0} in BEMC di-cluster and EEMC single cluster (di-cluster).

     For BEMC, there is energy ratio of leading tower over cluster larger than 0.9 and Zrr<0.7 cuts. In addition to this, the pt of di-cluster should between 1.25GeV/c and 2.5 GeV/c.

     For EEMC, there is energy ratio of leading tower over cluster larger than 0.9 and Zrr<0.7 cuts. In addition to this, the pt of di-cluster should between 1.25GeV/c and 2.5 GeV/c. But the statistics for EEMC di-cluster satisfying these cuts are low.

     So for EEMC, I look into single cluster to find possible #pi^{0} candidates. With the pt of single cluster should between 1.25GeV/c and 2.5 GeV/c. Require the single cluster has at least two towers, then assuming the leading two towers as photons decay from same #pi^{0}. Then the energy ratio of leading two towers over cluster between 0.5 to 0.85 to reduce the background, and Zrr between the leading two towers less than 0.65.
