where

  • L_int_mb is the integrated luminosity seen by the minbias trigger for runs in which the specified trigger was active
  • eps_vtx is the vertex finding efficiency for this trigger
  • eps_mb is the vertex finding efficiency for mb-triggered events in runs in which the specified trigger was active
  • vz is the fraction of events with a reco vertex that had fabs(vz) < 60 cm
  • vz_mb is the same quantity for mb triggered events
  • L_samp_mb is N_good_vertex_mb / (eps_mb * sigmaBBC))
  • < ps > is sum_{runs} (ps_mb * n_mb) / sum_{runs} (ps_trig * n_trig)
  • L_sampled is L_samp_mb * < ps >

Data were obtained from the 289 spinTree runs without any additional QA selection.  If I restrict to the 188 runs in the latest jet runlist I get

The vertex finding efficiency for minbias triggers climbs a little bit, but it's still only 51%.  After doing a little digging it seems this is consistent with Jan's findings in his evaluation of PPV for 2006:
