Let me add something obvious: DVM1 is connected to TPM1 DVM2 to TPM2 DVM3 (DVF1) to T1 DVM4 (DVF2) to T2 The measurements were done downstream of all TPC. All TPC are getting 500 cc/min of gas flow. I made a measurement upstream of all TPCs and the value is consistently 1.4 cm/musec. Something outgases inside the TPCs and lowers the drift velocity. The value or values of drift velocity inside the volumes have to be extracted from data. The only strong handle seems to be the vertical aperture of the magnet. In the midrapidity spectrometer we have three fibers to calibrate TPM2. Someday more fibers will be added and similar system will be installed in the FFS. What we have now are two limits for drift velocity 1.4 and the values that were measured last night. The data analysis should stay within those boundaries.
