Progress on the Compton
Analysis
R. S. Holmes, A. Rakhman
Compton X-Sect and Asymmetry
The DL response function
Di-Gaussian. Parameters are
extrapolated with polynomials
Extrapolated
Other fits:
1. 2D polynomial
2. Variable width Gaussian
Observed Compton Spectrum
Integrate response
Function folded
With theory
New Systematic
Appeared when a bug was fixed
Effect is down (at low end) by 2 with new function
Accidental Background on the Tail
Add 10 runs (with same gain)

Sensitivity to Thresholds
This must
be understood.
We have ideas.

Χ2 is getting
better. It looks
like we are

Jobs
• Make sure that <ADC>~E and that width
behaves reasonable with E.
• Rewrite code so that it can analyze Monte
Carlo
• Model slow PbWO4 response.
• Fix various bugs.
