Procedure with Sieve-slit

* A Hall A Tech may be required to install the 2-inch lead sieve-slit collimator onto the front face of the HRS.
* Take a sieve slit run with the multi-foil carbon target for the inelastic kinematics in the table.
* If you need to increase the spectrometer momentum setting, make sure you cycle Q2 and Q3 as per the cycling procedure.
* Repeat the above with the beam position shifted so that you see a vertical shift by one row.
* Rates assume 5 carbon foils, only 9 out of 25 sieve holes have events (~ 0.146 mSr acceptance), and 9% delta acceptance.
Ebeam [GeV] P0 [GeV/c] θe [deg] Q2 [GeV2] W [GeV] Rate [Hz] at 20 μA minutes for 100k events at 20 μA
7.3 3.200 19.0 2.5 2455 15 110
7.3 2.019 19.0 1.6 3030 24 70
Alternative rates with 1-inch tungsten sieve slit: 
* Assumes that 49 out of the 63 holes are seen (~ 0.52 mSr acceptance); however, the acceptance is reduced by 85%, 
since not all foils will see all holes. * Rates assume 5 carbon foils and 9% delta acceptance.
