On a possible second-level trigger for the experiment DISTO

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento A (1965-1970)

Summary

A two-level trigger is to be applied for suppression of the background and for effective selection of events involving short-lived Λ-, Σ- and φ-particles in the experiment DISTO. The first-level trigger is intended for selection of events by their multiplicity. The second-level trigger is applied for track recognition, in searching for a secondary vertex, and for identifying the detected particles.
