Description
Performance of the NA61/SHINE experiment at CERN SPS for
reconstruction of the Pb-Pb collisions with beam energies of 13, 30,
and 150 AGeV during the SPS operation in 2016 will be presented.
Effects of the trigger and event selection is studied for basic event
variables such as multiplicity of particles reconstructed using two
Vertex and two Main Time Projection Chambers (TPCs) of the NA61/SHINE
experiment and forward energy measured with the Projectile Spectator
Detector. Particle identification capabilities of the NA61/SHINE
experiment are studied for charged hadrons based on their specific
energy loss in the TPCs and for strange hyperons via their weak decay
topology. These basic capabilities of the NA61/SHINE experiment are
the key ingredients to study collective effects in charged and strange
hadron production in Pb-Pb collisions at the SPS energies.
