Description

The current implementation of the OpDetResponse service and the Digitizer in dunetpc incorrectly directs SimPhotonsLite objects into a single OpChannel (chosen from the OpDetector's available OpChannels as random) instead of randomly distributing the N Photons from the SimPhotonsLite into the M channels. This behaviour can result in both an underestimation of our data rate, and an over estimation of our ophit magnitudes.

This is handled in a slightly different way than I anticipated, but I believe correct. I am closing this while I look further into the code, and will reopen it if there is still an issue.
