Hi,

By just plotting the x vs. y position as it comes from the ToF-scintillator, you will get a pattern of squares. The pattern comes from the gaps between the LYCCA modules.
If everything would be perfect, the lines in the pattern should be perpendicular. In practice they might look a bit sheard.
The "x_shear" and "y_shear" parameters are there to correct for that.

I hope the following schematic drawing makes it clear.

index.php?t=getfile&id=8739&private=0

In addition, the pattern might be shifted in x and y direction, and rotated. There are other parameters forseen to correct these errors.

Regards,
Michael
