Abstract
Long-lived neutral kaon mesons (K^0_L) are identified by energy deposits in the KLM detector of the Belle II experiment. However, various other particles can also deposit energy in the KLM detector. A statistical method known as sP lot can be utilized to distinguish between the energy deposit patterns of K0 L vs other backgrounds. This technique, currently developed with Monte-Carlo events, allows for a more robust determination of K0 L identification efficiency in the KLM detector, which can eventually be applied on real data
