Goals
• Measure DVCS and p0 electroproduction cross sections at different Q² off proton and neutron.
• Two beam energies:- Separate DVCS.BH and |DVCS|² terms.- Separate σL/σT of p0 cross sections.

Calorimeter calibration
• First step: block calibration coefficients are determined using elastic runs (proton in HRS, electron in the calo). (A. Marti)
• Second step: gain variations can be monitored and corrected day-by-day using e N -> e N p0 (C. Desnault – M. Ben Ali)
Missing mass eN->e p0 X and invariant mass of the two photons in the calorimeter (GeV²)

* After calibration
Calorimeter calibration
Missing and invariant mass much more stable after calibration!!

Normalization
• Normalization studies through Deep Inelastic Scattering cross section extraction.
-> Quality control, run-by-run
-> Quality of the normalization (corrections, charge calculation,…)

Multitrack events in HRS• Between 5 and 10% of multitrack events
Failure of the tracking -> remove them and apply a correction
• BUT they are not all electron events: down to a 3% correction (max)

E>2 GeV in 2 tracks: Electrons

HRS acceptance
• First kinematics was run without collimator.
• 5 other kinematics were run with the collimator.
Collimator at the wrong position ?

Next …
• Adapt the R-function and/or find a suitable set of cuts to compute the HRS acceptance.
• Compare DIS results with theoretical value (F2 parametrization).
• First DVCS cross sections off proton for late Fall 2013.(A. Marti)
First DVCS off neutron (C. Desnault – M. Ben Ali) and p0
electroproduction cross sections (M. Defurne) for 2014.
