This study analyzes the impact of finite-size effects on the characteristic scale in UrQMD simulation compared to DIRAC p-p-CF results. The critical region of r* is influenced by ω and η' pairs, leading to a shift in Pbr primarily due to ω pairs. The simulation shows Nw shifting by 15%, resulting in a small but significant effect on Pbr and time measurement uncertainties. The study suggests that systematic uncertainty in time measurement due to finite-size effects could be less than the present DIRAC statistical error in t, supporting the need for future multi-layer target studies in DIRAC research.
