This R-function (strictly speaking, this is not an "R-function" -- this is
a function that was derived using R-functions min(x1, x2, ...)), was used
in the analysis of the E89044 (3He(e,e'p)) experiment. The flat acceptance
region for both spectrometers (for coincidence events) is defined with
the cut R > 0.002. For each spectrometer the function implements 11 linear cuts:
3 cuts limiting delta_tg
2 cuts limiting theta_tg
4 cuts limiting phi_tg in the (ph_tg, y_tg) plane
2 cuts limiting phi_tg in the (ph_tg, delta_tg) plane
Note that the E89044 experiment used cut -3.5 cm < reactz < 3.5 cm to remove
contributions from the aluminum walls of the unpolarized "tuna can" 3He target,
this is the cut effectively limiting y_tg.
Cuts on the left (electron) and right (hadron) spectrometers are identical, for
a total of 22 linear cuts.
File "cut4.f" defines the function as a PAW function (it was used for placing
the R > 0.002 cut on data); the file "kinem.f" defines MCEEP variable "RF" equal
to the value of the function (this variable was used for placing the cut R > 0.002
on simulation). To make the variable get calculated in MCEEP, it has to be declared in
several other MCEEP files -- see MCEEP manual.
Detailed discussion of this "cut function", including its efficiency, is my PhD thesis, at
