Energy loss and radiation corrections
02/10/06 (rev. 02/13/06)
The ntuples produced by replay correct
for energy loss in the target and spectrometer. For example hsp
is corrected for the energy loss of the particle from just after the
vertex to the hut (ie, contriubutions from the target material and the
windows of the HMS).
Therefore the heep checking
procedure needs to consider radiative corrections and energy loss of
the beam.
Both the energy loss of the beam and radiative corrections need to be
included when
using "heepcheck.f".
The kumacs that are used to determine the status of the offsets (ie,
provide the input for "heepcheck.f"), should include radiative
corrections
and the energy loss of the beam.
The kumacs that are used to check the result after applying the offsets
determined by "heepcheck.f" need to include both radiative corrections
and energy loss of the beam.
