The idea is to use this energy as “preshower" information to help with particle identification. The proponents desire to have this included in the next analysis launch which goes next week. No specific studies have yet been done to predict the effectiveness of this in our case, but in general it is a useful technique.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Implementing this would require a change to the REST data format to accommodate the new data member. This would essentially be a permanent change for reasons of backwards compatibility. These kinds of changes therefore require some amount of consensus.
