  1. open digi, recon, merit and relation files
  2. Wiki Markupreads digi to create two arrays of layer end trigger bits \ [tower\]\[layer\]\[face\] , one for CalLo and one for CalHi
  3. open recon and loop on clusters, then for each cluter
    1. open the corresponding crystal collection
    2. check if any crystal end has more than 100 MeV (or whatever other threshold)
    3. if any, then look if the corresponding layer end has a trigger bit set
    4. if not so, fill in a map of missing trigger bits and add 1 to a so called "cal ghost number"
  4. for each cluster, the higher the ghost number, the higher the probability that it's a ghost... but it looks like that above 2, they're all ghosts.

A cut is applied to select good gamma rays:
"FswGamState==0 && TkrNumTracks > 0 && CalEnergyRaw > 5 && CalCsIRLn>4 && CTBCORE>0 && CTBBestEnergyProb>0.1 && CTBClassLevel>2 && FT1ZenithTheta>112 && FT1ZenithTheta<115"

Cal xtals are tagged with the most conservative algorithm described above: energy >120MeV and no cal_lo trigger in both xtal ends.

Top panel of plot below shows the distribution of (log10 of) deposited energy for:
all sample, events with at least 1 ghost-tagged xtal, events with at least 1 ghost-tagged xtal & > 50% of ghost-tagged energy fraction

Bottom panel of plot below shows the correlation between number of ghost-tagged xtals and ghost-tagged energy (zero suppressed)

It looks like that almost all good gamma events have at least one ghost-tagged xtal and even requiring a large ghost-tagged energy we select a large fraction of events

I also looked at a couple of events that are "ghosty" according to this algorithm:
they look like perfect gamma-ray in which also the old reconstruction works fine

8 tagged xtals
80% ghost-energy

32 tagged xtals
97% ghost-energy

In conclusion, this algorithm cannot be applied to flight data.
