[Clas_hadron] Abstract for contributed QNP 2012 talk (April, 2012)

[Philip L. Cole]

Barry,

Thanks for your comments.  The bottom line is that our statistics are such
that the statistical errors are greater than those from the systematic
uncertainties.  We extracted 8200 phis over these two energy settings, and
when binned in cos_theta, there are just not that many phis per bin.
Please see
<http://wwwold.jlab.org/Hall-B/general/thesis/salamanca_thesis.pdf>.  The
thesis served as the CLAS analysis note.  And the analysis was approved in
this past November.  The issue of systematics and jitter of the coherent
edge is addressed in 5.5 Summary of SDMEs on p. 87.  Also, please look at
Fig. 6.2 on page 92 to see the quality of the fits to the data (with
statistical errors).

Regards,
Phil
