  • Plot of:

  • Efficiency versus Run
  • Efficiency versus Center of Mass Energy
  • Threshold Ratios for each Super Block versus Run



  • ETOThi

    (Looks for 80% of available energy deposited in the CCAL):

  • How are ETOThi efficiencies calculated?

  • Efficiency versus Run
  • Efficiency versus Center of Mass Energy


  • Comments:

    PBG1 calculations are complete. Note that no efficiencies are calculated for stacks 1 and 2 since there was no ETOTlo or minbias trigger.
    Also excluded due to lack of good data were runs 2034-2037 and 3276.

    Due to a timing problem for the super ring 4 neutral mlu, runs 1371-2108
    suffered a decreased efficiency.

    For runs 688-784 the ETOTlo prescale was 1000.
    For runs 801-2092 the prescale was changed to 500.
    After run 2094 the prescale was 100 (thus the large increase in number of events.

    For technical reasons, runs 3323-3333 are summarized in the ddbar data tables.
