[Clascomment] OPT-IN: Subthreshold photoproduction of phi mesons from deuterium!

[Haiyan Gao]

Dear colleagues,

I am very happy to inform you that Xin Qian successfully defended his 
thesis. Also as promised, we have posted all responses to all your 
comments at the g10 phi paper review site:
http://www.jlab.org/Hall-B/secure/hadron/wiki/index.php/Duke-phi-g10#G10_Phi
_Photoproduction_Analysis

The revised paper has also been posted at the above site together with the 
latest author list dated 5/4/2010. In the process of revising the paper 
and addressing the comments, we looked over carefully our analysis 
procedure and uncovered an error related to the bin centering correction. 
This now has been corrected. Next to the revised paper, there is a note 
summerizing the major changes to the paper and explaining the correction 
of this mistake.

Again, we thank you for your patience and please let us know if you have 
any further comments.

Best regards, Haiyan for all lead authors
