Rates Game

→ I 'set the board' in order to begin playing the rates game

→ Note that all plots below were calculated assuming the following:

Target Material	ND3
Target Length	3 cm
E0	11 GeV
xBjorken	0.1, 0.3, 0.5, 0.625, 0.75
Q2	Variable

→ All "Rates" in the plots below are Physics rates, not Total rates

Starting the Game

HMS/SHMS	HRS/SOLID

Fine Tuning for Each x_Bjorken bin (HMS/SHMS Only)

→ Here, I've only looked at the HMS/SHMS since that's been most talked about as a likely detector. HRS/SOLID will follow for this coming week.

xBjorken = 0.1	xBjorken = 0.3

Results

→ Results from the rates game for all x except x=0.75 (I'm having some difficulties with the code that I don't entirely understand which is causing the rate to come out as zero at high x)
→ Below are the rates that have been maximized while keeping W>2 for HMS and SHMS
