The normalized yield is equal to Ngood/Q/density. Here I neglected the density of the 3He gas.


Kinematic 5.2

Target window thickness Total charge # of good evts
upstream downstream
He3 0.0274 cm 0.0328 cm 6.92E+8 253254
Dummy 0.1581 cm 0.1585 cm 2.16E+8 3588

Result: An estimate of 2186 events wall events remains within the cut ==> Contamination is less than 1%.

Kinematic 6.5

Target window thickness Total charge # of good evts
upstream downstream
He3 0.0274 cm 0.0328 cm  ?E+8  ?
Dummy 0.1581 cm 0.1585 cm  ?E+8  ?

Result: An estimate of ? events wall events remains within the cut ==> Contamination is less than ?%.
