Hi Beni,
Thanks for your comments, here are some answers:
There is a 10 page limit for this submission, I am on the last
line already otherwise I think you are right.
The preliminary result is average for 12C and 28Si, with statistics
combined (Ilya may correct me) but, for the systematic errors we
do not add them from two targets. In text we say that the total
systematic error is a quadratic sum of individual items like errors
from the photon number counting, target number, event selection ....
It is not sum from two target results.
About the photon number in the experiment: the photon flux is not
right thing for this case since the definition (the book) of flux is
number of photons per unit area per unit time. So, we could use
something like "integral photon number passed through the target
during the experiment".
Thanks,
Ashot
