Hi Ellie, Dustin

Sorry this question is a bit late, but I would appreciate some
clarification on the plots in the most recent
technote<https://userweb.jlab.org/~dustin/work/b1_dir/Azz_response/Azz_response.pdf>


Please let me know if I have the following correct:

1) The plots in the technote show a systematic error that combines 6% total
relative uncertainty combined with the drift errors in table 1 of the
technote.

2)  The 6% relative systematic has been reduced from the 9.2% relative
error listed in table 3 of the submitted proposal.

3) The reduction comes from cutting the polarimetry relative uncertainty
from 8% to 4%.

4) This is justified by using the expected uncertainty from line shape
fitting instead of TE.


And if this is all correct, I have a question: is claiming reduction of the
relative (non-drift) uncertainty from 9% to 6% (visually) worth it, since
it complicates the discussion, and I was under the impression that the
drift uncertainties dominated.

-Karl
