- Both occupancy estimators are pre-calculated per each collision in the event selection routine, [EventSelectionModule.h](https://github.com/AliceO2Group/O2Physics/blob/daily-20251029-0000/Common/Tools/EventSelectionModule.h#L1361).

- In the occupancy calculation, multiplicities of nearby collisions are "weighted" according to their time separation from a collision-of-interest, to reflect the "severity" of their influence on that collision

- Estimators return `-1` if a given collision is close to Time Frame borders (so, not enough information for the occupancy calculation, while we need information within -40 µs...+100 µs time range wrt a given collision), event loss ~1.2%.

In addition to the occupancy estimators described above, several special event selection bits are implemented to better clean up various nearby effects from other collisions (related not only the TPC but also the ITS, e.g. due to high occupancies in the ITS Readout Frames).

To reject events recorded during the affected time intervals, several event selection bits were introduced in O2Physics ([PR #9038](https://github.com/AliceO2Group/O2Physics/pull/9038), Dec 2024):
