Energy cut (Ecore >0.2 GeV) shower shape cut (2 < 3) direct photon v2 has … centrality dependence. -> but still need to reduce errors more. EMCal TOF ( TOF < 1.2 ns) charged veto ( pc3hit > 6.5 cm) If we can reduce these errors especially low pT region, estimation of thermal photon v2 becomes possible. 1.0~3.0 3.0~5.0 5.0~10.0
