Here a few example plots are shown for the efficiency and
decay correction. The efficiency correction has a rather sharp rise at
the edge of the acceptance and is very close to 1 for most bins. The
decay correction has a slower evolution. Figure 5 gives
an impression of the overall behaviour of the correction with

. Figure 6 shows a few projections of the dcay
correction histogram in slices of total momentum
.

panles show distributions for 20
beams and the right panels
for 158
beams.
