Re: Transfer to Nitrogen

[Bernhard Lauss <lauss@berkeley.edu>]

thanks for clarification, I guess I have
looked through that paper more than 1 time and
obviously oversaw the rates given in the text.

so we should stick to the
lam_pN=0.34 and lam_dN = 1.45

this should not change anything in TOm's
high Z correction for the PROD50 data.
