Description

We studied a new trigger for NEMO Phase 2 tower based on hit time difference distribution. Such a trigger uses only a fixed number of PMT signals in a time windows less than a maximum value. The background rate is drastically reduced requiring hits from different PMT and a 75% trigger efficiency was estimated by a Monte Carlo simulation. The trigger rate was also measured on raw data. The results from the Monte Carlo simulation and raw data are shown.
