Apr 7, 2014 at 19:27 comment added abx You just need the degree (by Riemann-Roch), that is $c_1$, and that's standard: if $E$ has degree $d$ and rank 2, $\mathrm{Sym}^pE$ has degree $\frac{1}{2}dp(p+1) $ (by the splitting principle you just need to check that when $E=L\oplus M$, then it is straightforward).

Apr 7, 2014 at 5:11 comment added abx I have edited the question and treated the general case.

Treated the general case instead of a particular case
Apr 6, 2014 at 19:17 comment added abx No, sorry, I just did it for $\beta=2$. The same method works for any $\beta$ but the computation becomes tedious. The rest of the argument adapts immediately.
Apr 6, 2014 at 17:24 comment added user47036 Thank you for the answer. I just do not understand where you take into account the multiplicity $\beta$ along $C$. It seems to me that in this way you compute the dimension of the system of surfaces having multiplicity $2$ along $C$. Am I missing something?
