[Frost] One more thing on tagger sag

Michael,

I make histogram to check the tagger sag condition in FROST data.
I have used all runs in the period 3 (E_e = 1.645 GeV) to make a histogram in the following web: 
    
    http://hadron.physics.fsu.edu/~skpark/research/research_jun2810.html

In the first sag position, there are some vibrations but the second sag do not have any sag.
How do you think? 

After copying runs in the period 7 (E_e = 2.478 GeV) , I will make the same histogram like the upper one.
  
I will start the momentum correction using the data of the CH2 target in the period 7 (E_e = 2.478 GeV).
For this, I define new binning of phi, theta, momentum like :
   http://hadron.physics.fsu.edu/~skpark/research/research_jun1510_FROST.html

The main reason which I define like the upper web is the number of events.
Now I use the data of the topology gamma p -> p pi+ pi- for momentum correction. However their number of events are very small per run. Thus I reduce the number of binning for the good gaussian fitting.
You also start the momentum correction for FROST soon. If we can use the same binning , we can share our results together. Can I know your opinion about my binning?
I will start the momentum correction after copying all runs of the period7 to FSU.

Best wishes
