BEGINRELEASENOTES

Fixed wrong parameter name MUONThreshold -> MuonThreshold
Set parameter MuonTimeThreshold to the same value as MuonThreshold
Set threshold value to 0.025 for consistency with 500 GeV MC production

ENDRELEASENOTES

TODO:

[x] Check the threshold value itself

SingleMuonYokeSimHitEnergy MuonDigiIssueEventDisplay

@gaede This is the muon energy peak if found after simulation using LCTuple. I simulated 10 GeV muons going in the barrel at almost perpendicular angle (see event display).

I guess 10e-3 would be a correct value. Which is none of the default value in the processor code (0.025) neither the value we currently have in the settings (10e-6) ...

The plot above show the un-calibrated energy. We need to multiply by the calibration constant (56 -ish). So the old "default" threshold value from the processor was actually a correct value.

Because of the wrong spelling of the processor parameter MUONThreshold -> MuonThreshold, the value 0.025 was actually used in the 500 GeV MC production.

We will keep this value for consistency with the 500 GeV MC procution (IDR)
