“…which has the advantage that effects coming from left and right acceptances cancel in the ratio [3], leaving no dependence on XL or XR-It can be approximated to A'^''"^ :i; ^Truf (l + j£p) with ep = (P^ -P^)/{P^ +P^). The measured asymmetry is equal to the true asymmetry if the two polarizations P^ and P^ are the same, which is true to a very good approximation, since they differ at most by 0.4%.…”

“…Unpolarized beam can probably be used to study some of these effects (see Ref. [5] for a way to search for phase space differences using luminosities measured in various intersection regions).…”

“…L ↑,↓ are the total luminosities in the two polarization states, and L ↑,↓ P are the polarization-weighted luminosities. The advantage of writing the asymmetry this way is that acceptance effects originating from a different left and right acceptance completely cancel in the ratio [19].…”
