Scintillators above and below prototype, 49cm apart. Scintillator width is 13cm. Prototype placed on lower scintillator with straws at 90 degrees to long axis of scintillators.
The fits are not great but all err in the same direction. Calculated MPV errors are < 1%. By eye I would have picked the MPVs for the histograms below (45 degrees and flat, ~vertical tracked hits, 50 samples integrated) at 5.5 and 3.4 x10^3 giving a ratio of 1.6. The calculated ratio of fit MPVs was 1.64 and histogram means was 1.60. Geometrically it should be 1.45 (the pink line) as the scintillator widths allow tracks up to 15 deg each side of vertical.
