keyword=Beautiful He3 pressure curveThe 3He pressure curve looks beautiful. It is by far the best we ever got.
I did not do any nitrogen corrections since the N2 contamination is very small.
The radiative corrections are important: The difference of wall thickness between Duke and the ref. cell shifts the yield of the left arm by 1.3% and by 8% the yield of the right arm. The other radiative correction effect (shift of the elastic peak due to different ionization losses -> the position of the elastic cut will be systematically shifted relatively to the peak) is small.
I have accounted for the fact that the two elastic peaks did not sit at the same place for the left and right arms. This may be why the 2 arms are so consistent this time. They were not for the GDH, A1n and g2n pressure curves.
The pressure of Duke under running condition, deduced from its yield and the pressure curve, is 14.3 Atm.
