That would be in an ideal setup. In an ideal setup with no accidentals 
and perfect trigger you would not see any yield of omegas from low 
energy photons which were not in the trigger. But you see it and it 
increases as you increase beam intensity. It also also could be rate 
dependent trigger efficiency for high energies.
When you look at omegas outside of trigger region they are all ACCIDENTALS.
What actually needs to be checked is the yield of omegas in trigger 
region normalized to the flux in trigger region vs. beam current. This 
should be constant if there is no rate dependent trigger (in)efficiency 
and yield is determined correctly (background properly subtracted)
