A study of Two Photon Trigger Efficiency is performed on Bhabha events
selected according to criteria of selection A of Method 2.
A description of the Method 2 can be found in the DELPHI NOTE
96-22 PHYS 597
Here below are the PRELIMINARY results.
Results for FORWARD - BACKWARD trigger in the acceptance 25° < theta(e-) < 32.4°, 147.6° < theta(e+) < 155°, and Acollinearity(e+,e-) < 7.4°.
Here below the trigger efficiency has been estimated comparing the number of
HPCLO_MJ2 triggers with SINGLE PHOTON BARREL (SPB) triggers.
Defining
e1,2=trigger efficiency for detecting one photon in one hemisphere, and
supposing the energies well above the thresholds, the efficiency of
HPCLO_MJ2 is eLO=e1·e2 and the one of SPB is
eHI=e1+e2-e1·e2.
In the ipothesis e1=e2, e1 and eHI can be measured from the ratio
R=#(HPCLO_MJ2*SPB)/#SPB using the relations
e1=2·R/(1+R) and eHI=4·R/(1+R)².
Here below are the same quantities, but measured on a sample of e+e- --> gamma gamma (gamma) real data selected in the same acceptance region 42° < theta(g1,g2) < 138° and Acollinearity(g1,g2) < 30°.
A study of Single Photon Trigger Efficiency is performed on events selected if having a single electromagnetic cluster respectively in BARREL, ENDCAP C and ENDCAP A, with energy:
