Moller events occur for about 2.5% of the incident electrons on a LH2 target. We can assume that the Moller rate is 95% of the total event rate. We can assume the number of Moller events that occur within the DC range to be around 30% of the total Moller events occuring for the number of incident electrons for LH2 as well. Since the differential cross-section over the angel theta is proportional to the differtial cross-section over wire number we can dividing the Moller differential cross-section by the product of the density and length of the target material | Moller events occur for about 2.5% of the incident electrons on a LH2 target.

Moller events occur for about 2.5% of the incident electrons on a LH2 target. We can assume that the Moller rate is 95% of the total event rate. We can assume the number of Moller events that occur within the DC range to be around 30% of the total Moller events occuring for the number of incident electrons for LH2 as well. Since the differential cross-section over the angel theta is proportional to the differtial cross-section over wire number we can dividing the Moller differential cross-section by the product of the density and length of the target material
