Folks, as discussed in the meeting today, here's a preliminary list of good runs to be used for calibrations. The first nine runs have all 8 SEB's and are in bold:

21518
21520
21598
21599
21615
21626
21796
21813
21889
21891
22949
22950
22951
22979
22982

For these events we've avoided runs where the EMCal is noted to be in high-gain mode and ensured there is good correlation with the MBD. Unfortunately, those cross-checks come at a heftier statistical cost, with the following breakdown in terms of the number of events:

With all SEBs: 4.3M

With >= 5 SEBs: 6.4M

Additionally, I've created the following mattermost channel to discuss the joint EMCal/HCal calibration:
