摘要
We describe the algorithm used to identify charged tracks in the fixed-target charmphotoproduction experiment FOCUS. We begin by describing the new algorithm and contrast this approach with that used in our preceding experiment—E687. We next illustrate the algorithm’s performance using physics signals. Finally we briefly describe some of the methods used to monitor the quantum efficiency and noise of
