Documentation for Performing BEMC Gain Calibration

 The attached PDF gives instructions for running all of the code to peform a gain calibration on the BEMC.

Partonic pT plots - first look

The first plot is for partonic pt of 2-3 in one file in one run.

The second plot is for the partonic pt of 2-3 in all the files in all the runs.
