Entry  Sun Jun 1 18:23:38 2008, Markus Friedl, SiLC, Very simple tracking, run2719, 100000, ,  silc_verysimple_res_2REF4.pngsilc_verysimple_res_012REF4567.png
Very simple alignment (manual linear x direction shifting only, no rotation, assuming equal z spacing) and tracking.
Reference plane = Module 3 (~center)
Deviation calculated from track prediction using the other layers.
Simple Center-of-gravity algorithm (as of APVDAQ_Analysis), no eta applied.
Using only events which have exactly 1 hit per plane (~80% of all events).

Results: 
 Residual RMS = 4.99 um (REFERENCE against neighbor layers 2+4 only)
 Residual RMS = 6.35 um (REFERENCE against all 7 other layers) -> needs more sophisticated alignment

- long break in the middle due to power outage after thunderstorm

horizontal position ("target") = +2.0mm - after we decided to scan the whole area in 3 steps
this is RIGHT position

all 3 positions are:
RIGHT: +2.00 mm    <--- this run

in fact, trigger was set to coincidence of ALL FOUR scintillators, hence only (less than) 4 x 4 mm2 window !!!

Flex_Module has only 1 working APV - control bonds suffered during transportation

Position is approximately similar to KEK Nov 2007, however it appears like JP_module is flipped (up-down) w.r.t.
