LVL1 trigger bias in SEP05 - ArKCl at 1.75 A GeV - charged pion multiplicities

Addendum to previous page LVL1TriggerBiasInSEP05 concentrated on track multiplicities

This page tries to show the effect of the LVL1 trigger in the SEP05 experiment on selection of the reaction events.

We checked the multiplicity of charged pi mesons in the data samples taken with various LVL1 triggers:
For explanation of trigger conditions see LVL1TriggerBiasInSEP05.

* for EXP min. bias was taken as multiplicity of START events divided by 0.0310, which is an estimated min. bias reaction rate, see Table 2 in LVL1TriggerBiasInSEP05.
