The drift times are for a small group of straws, the amplitude & pedestal histograms are for ALL straws.  In the earlier runs the amplitude histograms are cut off at the lower end by the sparsification threshold so I would not pay too much attention to these.  I will look to see if there are any straws with a low enough threshold that the amplitude MPV is visible.

Fitted drift time function to straws in run 2451, picked straws with tmax slope < 30, used same straws for subsequent runs. Used same hit thresholds & window for all runs. </br> The drift times are for a small group of straws, the amplitude & pedestal histograms are for ALL straws. In the earlier runs the amplitude histograms are cut off at the lower end by the sparsification threshold so I would not pay too much attention to these. I will look to see if there are any straws with a low enough threshold that the amplitude MPV is visible.
