    keyword=refined 80 deg analysis

    Used run 2063 and whole run (so get away from problem of pulsers
    corrupting scaling by T5's).
    answer: 1.08 x 10^-5 ub/sr after correction for eff. target length, deadtime,
    ... and guess at radiation. Low by 40%. More than I would like.
    Below here is included a short python program to compute it so you
    can see what I used.

    # run 2063

    counts = 3921.0 # counts in Em peak
    omega = 0.006 # solid angle
    charge = 0.0404044

    tthik = 0.072 * 15.0 * 6.02e23 # number of nuclei per sq cm

    parts = charge / 1.6e-19 # number of electrons thru target

    lum = tthik * parts

    sig = counts / lum / omega # this is in cm**2/sr

    sig = sig * 1e30 # this is in ub / sr

    print sig

    print 'adjustment for eff. target length and radiation: '

    effsig = sig / 0.6 / 0.7 / (1 - 0.1188)

    print effsig

    To run the program, simply paste it into some file and type "python file"
    where file is what you called it. May not work on machines other
    than linux since python may not be installed.
