Integrated (Partial) XS• Data with the beam energy in the
range of 4.9<E<5.5 GeV covers the angular range of ~ 0.2-3.0 degrees (due to our geometry).
• When evaluating the total cross section, a large fraction of the final result comes from the extrapolation in the rest of the region
• Is there any systematic uncertainty introduced by this extrapolation?
• To answer this question we evaluate cross section, integrated over four regions of the photons’ scattering angle:
– 0.1 < < 90– 0.1 < < 10– 0.1 < < 5– 0.1 < < 3

In order to evaluate radiative corrections, need: 1. ’Radiated’ theory: theory,BORN theory, BORN+RC
2. ’Radiated’ efficiency: 0 RC

• Virtual: possibility of emission and re-absorption of virtual photon by an electron during the scattering process
• Double Compton scattering– Soft: secondary photon of
energy k<<kmax, not accessible to the experiment
– Hard: secondary photon of energy k>kmax, accessible to the experiment
Radiative Corrections

Total (RC) Cross Section (1)• Integrate differential cross sections for 2 processes, ‘soft-
virtual’ and ‘hard double’ scattering. • Corrections separated into 2 based on whether the energy of
secondary emitted photon is greater or smaller than some parameter 2max << me
• ‘Soft-Virtual’ term, based on ref. [4] of PN 42, contains a term ‘ln(2max/me); integrated over the scattered photon’s polar angle
• ‘Double-hard’ term, according to ref. [5] of PN 42, 2max is a lower limit of integration over the energy of one of the scattered photons; integration is carried also over the 2 polar angles of the scattered photons, and azimuthal angle between their planes.
• Result must be independent of the choice of 2max

Total, integrated, and differential cross sections are evaluated at the Born level for all carbon and beryllium data for 4.9<E<5.5 GeV beam
Mechanism for implementation of radiative corrections has been developed and is documented in Primex Note 42
Initial evaluation of radiatively corrected cross section with the carbon target shows very good agreement with theory (~1 %)
• New flux/binning scheme
• More work on RC (also for the Be target)
• Systematic Errors• Low energy data set
