Checking the isolation cut vs pythia events
Abstract: We evaluate the rejection power vs efficiency of an isolation cut using a 1-tower cluster using pythia Monte Carlo. The energy of the 1-tower cluster is corrected for l

Improving the Isolation Cut
Abstract: Our goal is to improve the isolation cut by
- Reducing the size of the tower cluster
- Correcting for energy leakage into neighboring towers
which will (1) decrease the likelyhood that the 2nd photon from a meson decay contributes energy to the gamma candidate, and (2) reduces the amount of energy which the gamma candidate contributes to the isolation energy sum.

Optimization of cluter size for gamma ID in the endcap
Abstract: We compare four different cluster sizes (3x3, 2x2, 2x1 and Ahmed's high-tower/2x1 scheme) in the endcap. Monte Carlo simulation indicates that Ahmed's scheme provides the be
