Table 2 Relationship between the muon rate (NW), the noise rate (NR− 1), the first-stage time window (1st TW), the second-stage time window (2nd TW), TWAIT, and the time required to initialize the CTC unit to find events that coincide within the 2nd TW.
NΩ (Hz) | NR-1 (Hz) | 1st TW (ms) | 2nd TW (ns) | TWAIT (s) | Initialization time |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1 | 4 | 1 | 100 | 3 | 0.4 s |
0.1 | 4 | 1 | 100 | 30 | 18 s |
0.01 | 4 | 1 | 1000 | 300 | 15 min |
0.001 | 4 | 1 | 1000 | 3000 | 3.8 h |
