ooking the source of discrepancy The search of the true polarization Sherman function calculation is affected by influence of radiative effects. How large? A good question. Could be below.5 %. Extrapolation to foil thickness zero, seems possible below.3 % using power Monte-Carlo simulation. Target induced background, seem to keep below.5 %. This talk.
