Energy Determination Method - Crab
• Measure event excess in 7 independent “slices” in x2 and NFit.
• Simulate each reconstruction epoch• Use the MCAnalysis “sensi()” method to compute
the number of events/day vs alpha.• Find minimum ChiSq for (A,alpha).• All analysis done using Geant 2.0 and “dev”
version of electronic and noise simulation.• VV’s PMT simulation is included by default.• PE levels were “rescaled” to be appropriate for old
calibrations.

Energy Determination Method
• Use x2/NFit slices used in weighted analysis.
• Exploit energy dependence of the cuts.
• Theta < 30 deg• Alpha = -2.4

Epochs• Single layer Fitters
– Epoch 1 – COM core fitter– Epoch 2 – OFF core fitter– Epoch 3 – ORCOM core fitter
• Multilayer Fitters– Epoch 4 – Gaussian core fitter - 3 layer core fitter– Epoch 5 – Gaussian core fitter
- 2 layer core fitter
• Analysis strategy:– Combine epochs 1-3 and simulate as OFF only– Combine epochs 4-5 using “nfit_2layerEquiv”
and simulate as epoch 5.
