Bug #1617 - Crosscheck to MiniMc files production

This is a comparison of MiniMc files provided "out of the box" when embedding is produced and files produced by user using different library (SL08e in this case).

Sector 5 anomaly

 I have previously reported seeing issues in padrows 38-40 of sector 5 in Run 8 data (see T0s in Run 8 and the second half of Run8pp zerobias charge asymmetry ).

T0s in Run 8

While studying residuals (generated from Sti, so-called "StiPulls") from Run 8 for work towards understanding h-/h+ issues, I decided to take a look at residuals in the time directio

J/psi Au+Au run 7 embedding - QA for sample in /star/institutions/lbl/andrewar/embedding/data/P08if/Jpsi_100

I run a quick QA for J/psi Au+Au run 7 embedding (sample in /star/institutions/lbl/andrewar/embedding/data/P08if/Jpsi_100/).

Au+Au run 7 embedding - QA for sample with fixed bug 1568 (A dip of pseudorapidity distribution in embedding outputs)

This is a QA for a pions sample produced when bug #1568 ("A dip of pseudorapidity distribution in embedding outputs") was fixed. There is however other issue.
