This shows the reduced chi square for the above data. These histrograms do not perfectly fit to gaussian curves and it is difficult to determine if they are fitting as well as they could be. This shows that the fit strength is dancing all over and is not fitting very well. This shows me I must be quite careful when deciding that a gaussian fit accurately. | This shows the reduced chi square for the above data.

+ | This a set of hand fit histograms showing lower pile up cases. By hand fit I mean I did not use a macro to automatically fit the histogram to a gaussian but used the fitting window to hand fit it. With smaller |h| bins the gap between the barrel and the endcap can be seen as a spike at |h| = 1.5. The data tends to varies more than auto fit plots because the technique is not as consistent from histogram to histogram. | ||

+ | This plot was generated to explore the intrinsic difference in resolution between two dielectron gun samples. One sample has an energy distrabution from ( 20 < E < 500) while the other has (100 < E < 1000) in GeV. This difference in energy was postulated to cause a difference in intrinsic resolution because background noise will be a different percentage of each sample. This turned out the be the case with the lower energy sample having a slightly worse intrinsic resolution. Each case was done with zero pile up events. The first 10 entries of the lower energy case are zero because there is not data for that |h| range present. |
