There is a tunable parameter in the FCAL code with default:
MIN_CLUSTER_BLOCK_COUNT = 2;
At lower energies (<~500 MeV), this causes photon reconstruction efficiency to be lower because often only one block has energy deposited in it (above the 20 MeV threshold in mcsmear).
In single photon sample:
- red:
MIN_CLUSTER_BLOCK_COUNT = 1
- black:
MIN_CLUSTER_BLOCK_COUNT = 2
In b1pi events:
- Overall efficiency increases by ~6%: 78% -> 84%
- 15% in total photon count (after timing cut) (1.18->1.36)
1-block "clusters" will collect less energy than multi-block clusters of same photon energy-->will affect energy calibration, energy resolution
