Re: [BLAST_ANAWARE] collimator studies

BLAST detector subframe was open, presumably since the collimator was
installed, so no conclusions can be drawn about the effect of the
collimator on the detector. Any work done with just the BQMs is fine, as
the BQMs are attached to the beampipe, not the detector subframe. We'll
take more data today on empty and H2. Then we can make a new plot of z
distribution on empty, compare with and without the collimator.
