[Sbs_gems] [EXTERNAL] Fwd: Cosmic data for UV Layer and J1

Hi Kondo,

The UV layer does not have a mapping problem. It is an exact copy of the
mapping from BB, which is proven to be correct. I believe the pattern and
all the hits outside the active area are just noisy strips that cause bad
2D correlations, since this is a low level analysis and does not have
tracking to check that hits are true. Also notably, I just realized this is
an old version that accepts 1 strip clusters, which certainly also
contributes a lot to the noise that we see. It may be worth it to rerun
with 2 hit minimum clusters.

For the UV data, I see there are some strips missing, and an entire APV on
the right most side. I looked at the GEM yesterday and did not see anything
disconnected, and also the raw APV data did not show me that the APV was
bad. So I am not sure if it is possible to fix all these missing strips. If
we have time I can try replacing some APVs, but it will likely end up being
more work than it is worth. Also I will note that the large missing area
from one APV on the right side correspond to the top of the GEM, and would
therefore be outside of the production cross section anyway.

Best,
Sean
