Description
To meet the challenges of identifying interesting physics events in the high collision rate environment of the Fermilab Tevatron, the D0 experiment has developed a three-tiered trigger system. This talk will present an overview of the D0 trigger system with emphasis on the track trigger. The track trigger is a hardware-based system that receives inputs from the scintillating fiber tracker and pre-shower detectors. Its main purpose is to identify tracks and pre-shower clusters in the first stage (level 1) of the trigger and provide inputs to the level 2 global trigger. The current status and performance of the track trigger will be discussed.
