Dear all

I posted my study of the efficiency as well
https://logbooks.jlab.org/entry/3609841

I get the same results as Stepan with points at 45 nA and 75 nA

In addition, the absolute normalization indicates a lower efficiency. This
was already seen before in the spring data. It could indicate that some
efficiency loss is due to something other than tracking.

Best regards
FX
