- Systematic correction resulting from radiative tail of inelastic ep process under the measured Møller signal
- For inelastic ep’s (<=0.5% of signal), the PV asymmetry is significantly (~20×) larger than for Møller and ~12× larger than for elastics – but is not well known.
- The idea is to measure the inelastic asymmetry in a radial region where it dominates, and use simulation to scale this measurement to the region of Møller signal contamination (using Q2-weighted W2 to characterize the scaling)
