Figure 5

Pseudorapidity ranges covered by FMD, SPD and VZERO (V0-L and V0-R) detectors, with an illustration of the distances$d_{\rm L}$ and $d_{\rm R}$ from the edges ($\eta_{\mathrm{L}}$ and $\eta_{\mathrm{R}}$, respectively) of the particle pseudorapidity distribution to the edges of the ALICEdetector acceptance (vertical dashed lines --- for the nominal interaction point position) and the largest gap $\Delta\eta$ between adjacent tracks. The centre of the largest gap is denoted $\eta_{\rm gC}$. L and R stand for Left and Right, respectively, following the convention defined in Section 3
