data analysis

Negative Energy ?

This run 2902, Int_Ch14 histogram. Why there is negative?

Pulses

run 2905

1st 100 puleses

pulse that only partially read-in:

first 10 pulses, some pulses that only partially read-in:

looks like some pulses are only partially read-in. We need to delay signal more?

One possible cut may to determine if the signal is increasing within the first 100 - 300 $Iterations.  This would be like creating a leading edge discriminator in software.

T->Draw("CH14:Iteration$","Iteration$<300 & CH14<100","L",10,1)

looks like it just won't draw. I need to know the to way exclude that event does not satisfy "Iteration$<300 & CH14<100" requirement.

Why CH14 histogram is all positive, but int_14 histogram has negatives?
