Incremento di statistica rispetto al Run IB:

                                          # Eventi IB      0.73 M
                                          -------- =  ----- ~ 7.5
                                          # Eventi II        5.4 M

Poiche' durante il Run I abbiamo collezionato un totale di ~2.3 M eventi a 1800 GeV
(run 1A+1B+1C), l'aumento di statistica rispetto al Run I si riduce ad un fattore:

                                         # Eventi I         2.3 M
                                        --------- = ----- ~ 2.3
                                         # Eventi II        5.4 M
