Please note that there are 8 modules read out in this run, but the last one (#7) is placed outside the beam and
hence does not provide any meaningful data.

- 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:

  30   Sun Jun 1 18:23:38 2008 Markus FriedlSiLCVery simple trackingrun2719100000  
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

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