To-do List from previous meeting

1. Identify files with new geometry (Beni)
2. Estimates of pedestal width (electronic noise, etc.) for FM PMTs. The dark rate should be negligigle in this case.
3. Resolution studies with up-to-date geometry (Blake)
4. Resolution studies with different segmentation for the outer section.
5. Add F100 rad hard glass to simulation.
6. Calibration meeting Tues Aug 26
7. Decision on Bcal sampling fraction needed by Sep.
