Notes by Elton.

== Announcements==

== Normalization ==
# No changes, latest version posted on wiki
# All tex and figures will be added to the cvs repository for save
keeping.

== Comments on PHi-- Note ==
# Correction for decays outside of target estimated to be 15+/-5%.
# This correction has been included into the upper limits
# All documentation has been updated to reflect latest results
# Upper limit has increased to 700 pb, with the addition of the 15% loss
for decays with 5% uncertainty, as well as updated number number of
10->15% uncertainty in normalization.
# Figure 20? in normalization note has been included into the response to
the committee. Lewis will send Hovanes the .eps file for best

== Draft of Phi-- Paper ==
# Hovanes will start a draft of the paper.
# The draft will be provided to committee as soon as appropriate, but
response will not be delayed.
# We discussed how to include comparison of g11/eg3 Delta production.
Elton suggests to mention comparison in text but no figure so that CLAS
may allow publication to proceed without formal review of that data. In
any case the final results depend on it only indirectly as input to the
systematic error on the normalization.

== Theses ==
# Zhiwen and Haiyun should provide final pdf versions of their theses to
Reinhard for posting on CLAS thesis page.


== Next Meeting Aug 5, 9:00 am ==
# Everyone read and comment on Phi-- analysis note and response to
committee. Any suggestions should be incorporated before next week.
