 Another common interest is to track down the reason which caused the discrepancy between USD web data base and SOURCES. As the first step, Chao agrees to provide the cross section data of alpha interacting with Copper. Then Silvia will run it through SOURCES to nail down if the difference coming from the cross section itself.  Another common interest is to track down the reason which caused the discrepancy between USD web data base and SOURCES.

 +For the validation of (alpha, n) calculation, Chao agrees to send a reference to Jodi's group to see if we can start from there.
