The trigger system of the KLOE experiment

Abstract: We present the design of the trigger system for the KLOE experiment at the Frascati f-factory DAFNE: The detector consists of a large-volume drift chamber and a calorimeter both immersed in a 0:52 Tsolenoidal field. The trigger, structured with a first- and a second-decision level, is based on the multiplicity of energy deposits in the calorimeter and of hits in the drift chamber. The selection criteria are described and the efficiency for detecting f decays is evaluated using data

“…Cluster positions are measured with a resolution of 1.3 cm in the coordinate transverse to the fibers, and, by timing, of 1.2 cm/ E (GeV) in the longitudinal coordinate. The KLOE trigger [17] is based on the coincidence of two energy deposits with E > 50 MeV in the barrel and E > 150 MeV in the endcaps. Moreover, to reduce the trigger rate due to cosmic rays crossing the detector, events with a large energy release in the outermost calorimeter planes are vetoed.…”

“…The trigger [10] uses both EMC and DC information. Two energy deposits above threshold (E > 50 for barrel and > 150 MeV for endcaps) are required for the EMC trigger.…”

“…The absolute values of all of the systematic uncertainties on R 10 and R γ , the integral of (6) for E γ > 10 MeV, are listed in Table 2; the statistical uncertainties, 1% and 4.5% fractional respectively, are reported for comparison. All of the sources of systematic error are discussed below.…”

“…The column Selection includes the efficiency of the trigger, the background filter and the data filters described in sections 4 and 5.1. The trigger efficiency is controlled by comparison of the calorimeter trigger with a complementary trigger based on the drift chamber hit patterns [30]. A sample of unfiltered data is used to control the filter efficiency.…”
