I think this is reasonable. Please note that the ILC projections that are based on full simulation with backgrounds using current event reconstruction are naturally conservative too. The main reason is that the event reconstruction while quite sophisticated is still at an early stage compared to a running experiment, and this also applies to the physics analyses based on full reconstruction. best Chip and Michael --------------------------------------------------------------- Raymond Brock * University Distinguished Professor Department of Physics and Astronomy Michigan State University Biomedical Physical Sciences 567 WIlson Road, Room 3210 East Lansing, MI 48824 sent from: [log in to unmask] <mailto:[log in to unmask]> cell: (517)927-5447 MSU office: (517)353-1693/884-5579 open fax: (517)355-6661 secure fax: (517)351-0688 Fermilab office: (630)840-2286 CERN Office: 32 2-B03 * 76-71756 Twitter: @chipbrock Home: http://www.pa.msu.edu/~brock/ <http://www.pa.msu.edu/%7Ebrock/> ISP220: http://www.pa.msu.edu/courses/ISP220/ ISP213H: http://www.pa.msu.edu/courses/2007spring/ISP213H/ Facebook: http://msu.facebook.com/profile.php?id=2312233 > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Use REPLY-ALL to reply to list > > To unsubscribe from the SNOWMASS-EF list, click the following link: > https://listserv.slac.stanford.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=SNOWMASS-EF&A=1 > -- Graham W.
