The primary aim of my work is the extraction of the elastic cross-sections from data collected in Jefferson Lab Hall A experiment E12-11-112 which measured inclusive elastic scattering from the mirror nuclei 3He and 3H at low momentum transfer Q2 ? 0.1 GeV2. The obtained 3H cross-section is 0.630 ± 0.027 ?barn/sr with fractional uncertainty 4.35% and 3He cross- section is 1.274 ± 0.055 ?barn/sr with fractional uncertainty 4.29% . I determined the ratio of the 3He and 3H cross-sections since it cancels many of the systematic uncertainties that enter into the absolute cross-section extraction, and it reduced the fractional uncertainty to 1.85%.
