BigBite dE-plane TDC calibration:
This week I finished the dE-plane TDC calibration. For the calibration I used the same
approach as I did for the E-plane TDC calibration. In order to do so, I had to consider only
events without hit in E-plane (Ndata.DL.t1==0). This way T2 trigger was the
"main" BB trigger and consequently TDCs in dE-plane were sharp. In process of calibration
I fixed one of the channels (L,R) to T = -370ns, The offsets for the other channel were
determined from the L-R calibration. I adjusted the offsets in a way, that (L-R)(y = 0) = 0.
Here are the results of my calibration:

EVe - new version
I made some modifications and improvements to EVe. The new EVe shows
also deposited charge in E- and dE-plane. In addition, it also displays
a "full" track, represented by a line. The purpose of this is to
guide an eye. This way can user connect MWDC track to E/dE hit much faster.
Here are some screen shots of the new EVe.
