Hi again,
2

    
3
PeterB agreed with the idea of repeating the fit with a constraint on the beam
4
energy offset based on the arc energy measurement uncertainty.  The new results
5
are below.
6

    
7
According to the log, each measurement has an uncertainty of about 2.6 MeV,
8
independent of energy at least for the range 2.7-4.9 GeV.  That corresponds to
9
a fractional uncertainty of 0.59-0.87E-3, so I took +/-0.7E-3 as the constraint
10
on the beam energy offset dE.
11

    
12
However, one of the measurements, had a significant issue in that the arc
13
energy tool gave an energy of 2.7832 GeV, which was surprisingly far from the
14
expected 2.75 GeV.  After some discussion in June-2019, MarkJ came up with a
15
revised estimate of 2.74996 GeV, which I think Vijay is using his analysis.  So
16
I'll assume the uncertainty on this measurement is the same as the others for
17
now, but this might need revisting.
18

    
19
I also fixed an error, which was that the Heepcheck derivatives were calculated
20
for a wrong setting for one of the energies.
21

    
22
With this beam energy offset constraint, the global fit offset results look
23
quite a bit more reasonable.  As expected, the dpp(SHMS) and dpe(HMS) offsets
24
are also now quite a bit smaller.  The dthp(SHMS) angle offset is also quite a
25
bit smaller, while the dthe(HMS) angle offset has grown slightly.
26

    
27
Finally, the chi-square per energy is also more uniform.  The 3.6 GeV Heep
28
setting still has the largest chi-square contribution to the global fit, but by
29
a lesser amount than before.  Of course, the overall chi-square is slightly
30
larger now, as the constrained fit no longer corresponds to the absolutely best
31
fit, but the difference is not huge.
32

    
33
If you have questions or comments, please let me know.  We can discuss these
34
further at Thursday's meeting.

Thanks, Garth
