Hi Tonko,

I just scanned the 24 sectors and picked up from the plots the following
really hot channels. There may be more that the more detailled analysis picks up,
but not many in my experience from the previous years.

This is based on run 24140093

sector Pad Row
3,10,33
6,58,61
8,34,6
11,26,3
12,19,43
20,93,64
22,71,56
23,12,2


For the issue on the GG noise we don't have ready to go code, but as a group (TPC) we should be able
to address this also

Hi Tonko,

I will take a look at this today and come back to you later today.
Gene and Tommy setup the automatic generation of the the 2D ADC and
Cluster histograms, from which
I have a macro that can generate both plots and tables of hot channels
(and dead channels too, but you have most of these all ready.
There are also summary reports per run, but these are mainly (yet) for
iTPC and usefull for Yuri I trust.

Hello,

there is a number of hot channels in the TPC e.g.
I see it in sectors 6, 8, etc.

Can someone please identify those so I can suppress them.
Also, it would be important to have some plots which show
hot regions of the TPC on a pad basis, easily determined.
I need (sector,row,pad) coordinates.

Remember, any sort of hot pixels are detrimental to higher rates.
