To save computing resources, simulated events are only propagated through the full simulation of the LHCb detector if all charged final state particles are within the geometrical acceptance, defined to be 10< θ< 400mrad in the polar angle. The efficiency for this requirement is estimated from dedicated simulated samples with the requirement omitted, and which are not propagated through the detector simulation. As the efficiencies for configurations with all particles inside the acceptance are determined differentially in bins of meson (pT, y), it is sufficient to create a sample of D∗+→ D0π+, with D0→ K-π+ to evaluate both the D∗+→ D0π+ and the D0→ K-π+ efficiencies. A mistake was made in computing the D0 efficiency in that also here the angular requirement on the soft pion from the D∗+ was included. This has now been corrected, most notably leading to a decrease of the measured cross-section in the range 0≤ pT< 1 GeV/c for large values of y.The second issue was a bug in the coarse-graining of the fine binning used in the simulation to the final bins used for the published numbers. The effect was small, mainly affecting the low-pT bins, but resulted in a slight underestimate of the D0 cross-section.
