[Primex2] Compton result from Li

 Hi Li and Liping,

Thanks for the answers.
I think I found the origin of this pattern:
the flux which was used in MC is slightly different
from what we have for Compton data sample after all: MC flux was done before
finalizing Compton flux. It should not affect the efficiency
since relative difference in mean energy for all bin groups
is less or equal ~10^-4 (old vs new flux). In principle
we can regenerate but I think it's not worth - 10^-4 level is enough.
The question is why c.s. on page 17 is repeating used MC flux?,
it may indicate some issues in extraction process.

 Ilya

Hi Ilia,
regarding your questions:
1) the vertical axis is  the input events number / data flux* 10e9
2) 10 combined Echannel is one energy bin  first bin (4.4Gev) is for
Echannel 170- 180
3)  MC input is the generated events number which put in the simulation for
each Echannel , not reconstructed number
4) I will show you more plot later
5) flux means data flux

Cheers
