Caption: Figure 6.

Shadow condition (Equation (28)) shown for muons with different normalized impact distances ρR, at fixed impact angle ϕ0, for the parameters of an SCT. The left panel neglects the effect of the M2 baffles, while the right panel includes their contribution using Equation (32). Here, the muon has a fixed inclination angle of ν = 4°, with varying azimuthal projections ψ. See also Figure 5.
