Cointime Leakage Issue

- Ali was updated on the bifurcation seen in beta vs CT
- The bifurcation needs to be cut out and corrected with a beta efficiency
- A consistent beta cut needs to be applied for all runs (heep included)
- Use 8.2 data as a reference to check what good data looks like
- Nathan suggested it may be a rate dependent correction so such a beta efficiency may need to be applied setting by setting
- It is a beta correction not CT (they are correlated), but a cut in beta will also apply to CT
- CT is based off the SHMS reference time so HMS should be correlated to this
- Ali can add the beta efficiency to the report file to check the possible rate dependence
	- In CT vs beta: Three boxes...
	- Around central peak
	- Lower bifurcation
	- Upper streak
- This will require a MM cut for each particle type, a CT cut, and possibly randoms
- CT vs MM plot binned in cuts of beta may help to pick a good "box" for each scenario
- Maybe combine upper+lower and apply cut in CT vs MM. Then compare ratio of this upper+lower and central peak to all data, respectively.
- Make sure PID also included


Next Steps

- Everything will need to be replayed after this
	- This will include new offset values
	- Out of plane offsets is not fully resolved yet
		- Possibly find from Pmy?
- Ali will work on report file and Richard will finish up offsets. Then a new replay of all data will be done.
