The simulation tools have been improved since the recording of these video tutorials.  The user will find extra prompts for the details of the planned beam run, and estimated absolute measured counts will be calculated and displayed.  The display format will look like the following:

The "raw counts" are estimated from a typical efficiency curve for Gammasphere, and the estimated absolute efficiency <math>\epsilon</math> is given as "Sim. eps" for each transition.  Possion counting errors are based on the raw counts, while additional error on the ''total'' (simulated) efficiency-corrected counts may be added by the user.
