Abstract:

The random triggers from the dedicated CPP test in August 2020 (runs 72914–72915 and 72949–72958) were used to estimate the expected trigger rate for the CPP experiment. This note describes the conditions of the test, observed rates, and the effect of lead shielding sheets placed upstream of the TOF to investigate how those rates changed.
