Calibration procedure:
Gain correction factors are found through cluster coordinates and Z
(E(el)=Eb/[1+2*Eb/me*sin2((el)/2)])
Incorrect value of Z will result in elasticity distribution not centered
exactly at 1 ! try to vary z, recalibrate, check elasticity

Looks good
Look closerLook closer
LMS and SA gains are consistent but LMS is more “scattered”
SA gains: stat. errors are small (for carbon)Systematic uncertainty comes mostly from possible beam misalignment: shift of 1 mm in X results in ~1% change of the gain value
