  • Abstract
    The beam-gas has affected STAR background in RHIC proton Run 2005, but not in Run 2006. With higher beam intensity in Run 2008, the beam-gas effect at STAR may be of concern. The ratio of ZDC background and coincident rate seems to be useful in proton runs in evaluating the experimental background.
