Rates Game
→ I 'set the board' in order to begin playing the rates game
→ Note that all plots below were calculated assuming the following:
{| style="text-align:center; border-collapse:collapse;" border="1"
| Target || ND3
|-
| Target Length || 3 cm
|-
| E0 || 11 GeV
|-
|}
→ All "Rates" in the plots below are Physics rates, not Total rates
Starting the Game

Fine Tuning for Each x 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.
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
