Updated barrel preshower spectra
I applied tighter cuts to the pedestal fits when looping the channels for the preshower crates. I was able to significantly clean up the spectrums with respect to what is posted here:

Timing scans for the barrel preshower & shower max: Update
Introduction
My previous work with the barrel preshower and shower max timing scans is documented here:
What Drives the Moments of the Net Proton Distribution?
The attached .pdf file looks at how far one can go in understanding the Npart dependence of moments of p-pbar distribution, based ONLY on central limit theorem, with nothing to do with Lattice QCD.

Combining Cascading High Tower Triggers in 2008
Combining the cascading high tower triggers in 2008 is a bit complicated. In d+Au there were 4 HT triggers with increasing thresholds, while in p+p there were 3. The TCU deals with over
pp200 Pi,K,P embedding status and dEdx
Pi,K,P (positives) are available for pp2008 data.
Updating ZDC SMD Data Analysis for 4 Spin States
- Hal has calculated the asymmetries as a function of phi and per slat for the 4 spin states.
- Code is now updated to reflect the 4 spin states.
- Tested with 2 spin states to make
