Determination of Scanning Efficiencies in Experiments Using Nuclear Emulsion Sheets
G. Brooijmans
Abstract
During their exposure, nuclear emulsion sheets detect both tracks from experiment-related particles, as well as a considerable amount of background tracks, mainly due to cosmic rays. Unless the exposure has been fairly short, it is therefore fairly likely that a fraction of the tracks that have been identified as belonging to the particles the experiment is interested in, are really due to background. A method, which allows to measure this fraction reliably directly from the data, is described.
