Thank you Matt for your comments. In principle, I am doing the QC only on "good" physics runs (target filled) but there is something indeed fishy with the He data and/or hopefully only with the new pi0 skims that I produced. For example, after a couple of iteration,
I am able to improve dramatically the pi0 resolution for the Be run and for the beginning of the He run, but for the rest of the He run, the resolution is barely improving after each iteration.</div>

In the meantime, I implemented new ranges but there is a subdivision that needs to be done.

<div class="">Hi Igal,</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">These plots are interesting, particularly the discrete jumps. I went back to to look at the logs and some boundaries, I think the ones you marked, correspond to target empty/refill, right? </div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Without run numbers, it is hard to do detailed detective work, but I recommend taking a look at the He 1 period more closely. There is one anomalous point where the pi0 mass is high that I predict might be run 61462. At this point, by reading
the eLog, it appears that there was an attempt to run with CDC in the data stream. That was then abandoned because RootSpy wasn't working properly, and running continued, perhaps restoring pi0 mass back to its previous value. Then the next day Sasha got
CDC working in the data stream and again the pi0 mass returned to the high value.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Likewise, there are two jumps at the end of the He 3 run period that you have marked, These appear to coincide with particular changes to include/exclude the FDC in the readout.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Naively, the gain of the FCAL shouldn't change whether or not the chambers are read out. Perhaps it is purely coincidence, but I have a little concern you might be treating a symptom instead of getting at the root cause by adjusting gains.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Could your plots (perhaps backgrounds) be sensitive to presence/absence of tracks when the CDC or FDC hits appear/disappear?</div>
