SigmaMax cuts

Two photon events are the ones that are above BOTH of the magenta lines.

One photon events are the ones that are below the black line.

1- / 2-photon event reconstruction with the new shower function

With the new asymmetric shower function in hand. I examined the true vs reconstructed variables for single photon simulations (40GeV) in GSTAR.

For the W- yield, I see some small (though overall yield is small so they aren't vanishingly so) differences between the yield from Justin's processed data and my own (using identical methods, with
