Note that the track of the electron in the calorimeter does not have the "holes" showed for the muon events from runs 460 and 322. Images ElectronWithCU_2_ZX ElectronWithCU_2_ZX show the second electron event from the ZX and ZY perspective. The track is well defined in both planes.
The distributions of the variables Trk1ZDir and CalZDir are shown in Electron811Reconstruction.gif, Electron811Reconstruction.ps and Electron811Reconstruction.root (gif, ps and root files). And the distribution of the variable CalTransRms is shown in Electron811CalTransRms.gif, Electron811CalTransRms.ps and ElectronCalTransRms.root. Note that the reconstruction fo these variables is not as "incorrect" as in the case muons events from runs 460.
Therefore, it seems that run 811 is NOT suffering from the calibration problem described before.
Typical images with more than one charge particle from run 811 can be found HERE.
Philippe also shown very broad distributions of CalTransRms in past VRVS beam test meeting (2006/08/01). Yet the origin of this broad distributions seems NOT to be related to the effect which is described above. I do NOT see this effect in the events from run 700000811. Details of this analysis can be found inQuickLookToEventsFromRun700000811.
The differences in CalZDir and, specially CalTransRms observed in run 811 seem to have their origin in the presence of other charge particles (in addition to the 5 GeV electron) in the Calibration Unit. Scanning events from this run with FRED, one finds many events with more than 1 clear charge particle entering in the tracker of the Calibration Unit.
Typical images from run 700000811 with more than one charge particle can be found HERE.
