Theoretical Considerations
Bethe-Heitler mechanism of pair production on the nucleus with screening effects due to atomic electrons and Coulomb distortion Pair production off atomic electrons, considering excitation of all atomic states and correlation effects due to presence of other electrons and the nucleus Radiative corrections (of order ) (i) virtual-photon loops and (ii) real-photon process like + →e+ + e- + + Nuclear incoherent contribution, + p →e+ + e- + p Nuclear coherent contribution (VCS), + →* + →e+ + e- +

Preliminary Error Estimate
Statistics (per bin) < 2.35% Number of Carbon atoms 0.05% Photon flux Statistics <0.34% Systematic ~0.97% (assuming no leakage) Backrgound subtraction ~0.50% HyCal Resolution <0.10% HyCal Calibration ?% Multiphoton Events ?% TOTAL (per bin) %(stat.) 1.1%(sys.) -(the ? Still need to be added in)
