Hi Steffen,

To check the phi-dependence in our double-pion data, I make some histograms in the following web:

  http://hadron.physics.fsu.edu/~skpark/research/research_jun2110.html

I make 2D-histogram whose x-axis is the phi angle (LAB) of each particle and y-axis is the momentum pull of each particle and project it to 36 plots. I make the histogram using the mean of the Gaussian fitting. 
I think momentum pulls of each particle have some phi-dependence like your result.
