//during reconstruction: //compute dE/dx separately for fdc & cdc (reject 1 of the materials if significantly fewer hits than the other) (reject largest hits of each (separately)) //compute the means & sigmas for each separately //combine the dE/dx's using bragg additivity (calculate the weights!) //calculate the uncertainty on the combined dE/dx (transformation of errors) //calculate the average combined dE/dx (use bragg additivity, with the individual means) //calculate the chisq //weight = L1*rho1/A1 OVER sum(Ln*rhon/An): # scattering sites (with Na's canceled) //to find means & chisq's (for fdc & cdc separately): //tree: beta, x, and dE/dx
