Azz Re-Optimization
Using the Bosted code, which now uses the complete cross-section with both QE and DIS parts, has been checked against previous data, and uses the full dilution factor, I've gone back through beam energies of 6.6, 4.4, and 2.2 GeV and optimized the physics rates while keeping the total rates below the DAQ maximum (without prescales) of 3kHz. For each of the uncertainty estimates below, the dilution factor used was calculated from the SHMS cross-sections. Pzz is assumed to be 30%.

Note: The HMS rates are higher than the SHMS rates, but the cross-sections show the opposite. I believe this is due to the HMS angular acceptance being slightly larger than the SHMS's.
