Dennis
these were my expectations from Ted's paper for g6c I did some time ago.
---------------------------------------------------------
Expected Events in phi(1680)-> eta.phi

Formaly Measured g.p -> pKK     is sigma= 8 nb

>From Barnes, Page and Black         BR(eta.phi)/BR(KK) = 0.5

therefore, expected sigma(1680->eta.phi) = 4 nb

N (events) = (Na*rho*L)*I*sigma            all g6c data        I= 
3.6*10^12 photons

N=3,069 events         N(observed) = N*Acceptance              Acceptance 
(pKK) = 0.7 % (Monte Carlo)

N(expected)= 20 events
N(seen) is about 20 events 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
If we have 10 more events  g12 will see about 200? but I do not know how 
the acceptances compare.
