Hi Sheila, there are mistakes in table 7, 8, 9 (in the BAD 1383 v.3): the value of sigma_L for the signal function reported in the tables are in GeV, not in MeV.... Actually I fixed these tables but only in the CVS version of the BAD. Thank you for spotting all these mistakes! Cheers, Antonio > > Hi! Thanks for answering that.
