[Halld-cpp] tagger overlapping counters and CPP target density

Hi Justin,
According to my records (Rory may correct me), the values are:

  *   Density: 11.39 g/cm³
  *   Thickness (average): 305.9 microns
  *   Thickness variation: 0.38%
  *   Lead-208 mass fraction: 99.09%
  *   Number of atoms per unit of transverse square: 1.009 × 10²¹ cm⁻²

My estimation for the uncertainty in (density × thickness) was 0.39%.
By the way, for the CPP flux calculations, it might be important to exclude the part of the flux associated with tagger hodoscope counters that geometrically overlap with microscope counters, if they coincide in time as well. We need to find a way to address this issue.
Below is the table I am currently using to eliminate this double-counting.

 Best,
Ilya

Subject: [Halld-cpp] CPP target density?

Hi All,

I’m working on adding the photon flux to CCDB so that we can use our standard tools to compute the flux for each run.  Part of that process for our typical LH2 runs is to store the target density (g / cm^3) in CCDB so that we can convert the flux to luminosity.  My question is: what is the density of the lead target for CPP that I should put in this table https://halldweb.jlab.org/cgi-bin/ccdb/versions?table=/TARGET/density ?
