The output data rate at fixed threshold typically increases exponentially with the number of pile-up collisions, so the legacy algorithms from previous LHC data-taking periods had to be tuned and new approaches developed to maintain the high trigger efficiency achieved in earlier operations. A study of the trigger performance and comparisons with simulations show that these changes resulted in event selection efficiencies of >98{\%} for this period, meeting and in some cases exceeding the performance of similar triggers in earlier run periods, while at the same time keeping the necessary bandwidth within acceptable limits.", optnote="WOS:000563641800001", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=4519), last updated on Mon, 14 Sep 2020 07:13:00 +0000", issn="1029-8479", doi="10.1007/JHEP08(2020)080", opturl="https://arxiv.org/abs/2005.09554", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1007/JHEP08(2020)080", language="English" }
