+ | [http://www.pas.rochester.edu/~hayes/rachel_1_videos/loading_yield_data.html Loading yield data and passing the data to Gosia] 4 minutes | ||
+ | |||
+ | [http://www.pas.rochester.edu/~hayes/rachel_1_videos/simulation.html Simulating gamma-ray yield data] 4 minutes. This can be used for predicting count rates, testing the ability to fit matrix elements in a planned experiment, etc. | ||
+ | |||
+ | [http://www.pas.rochester.edu/~hayes/rachel_1_videos/integrated_yields.html Calculating gamma-ray yields] 3 minutes. This calculation uses a full integration over the particle detector, Ge detector and energy loss in the target. These are the yields that should be compared to data. | ||

+ | [http://www.pas.rochester.edu/~hayes/rachel_1_videos/corrected_yields.html Calculating "corrected" yields from yield data and the normalization constants.] 3 minutes. This is the first step in fitting matrix elements to experimental data. These two steps should be repeated every time a fit is done. | ||
+ | |||
+ | [http://www.pas.rochester.edu/~hayes/rachel_1_videos/fitting.html Fitting matrix elements to experimental data.] 9 minutes. Be sure to calculate the normalization constants before fitting. This is shown in the corrected yields tutorial. | ||
