Agenda

1. Dilution factors during GEn-I -> Gordon Cates

Minutes

• GEn-I used no dilution from scattering from target windows that are not removed by y-target cuts
• can we account for nitrogen and background like we did in GEn-I?
• we do not have nitrogen data for all of the GEn-II kinematics
  • contributes ~8%
  • can we use simulation to get N2 data?
• Generalized eikonal approximation (GEA)
• average polarization is less than effective polarization
  • cutting out inelastics constrains wave function
• how does one measure the asymmetry for the accidental backgrounds?
  • fitting the background under the coincidence time peak - Gary
    • this method addresses dilution but not asymmetry?
    • more discussion in zoom chat
