Run 3735 positron charge

positron rates is 0.26 Hz.

Run times is 1002.

The total positron in this run is 260.

The current of the positron beam is: [math]260 \times 1.6 \times 10^{-19}=4.2 \times 10^{-17} [/math] C.

Run 3735 electron charge

The electron peak current is around 100 mA.

The pulse width is: 300 ns.

Then current in a single pulse is: 300 ns * 100 mA = 30 nC.

The total pulses in this run are: 301462

Then the total charge is this run: 30 nC * 300,000 = 9 mC.

e+ to e- ratio

e+ / e-= [math]\frac{4.2 \times 10^{-17}~C} {9~mC}[/math]
