Comparison of test beam data from imaging calorimeters with Geant4 simulations

The CALICE hadron calorimeters - test beam results

We present concepts and beam test results of highly granular calorimeter prototypes optimized for the application of particle flow algorithms. A scintillator-steel hadron calorimeter using SiPMs as photodetectors (AHCAL) has been tested in electron and hadron beams at CERN and Fermilab in the energy range 1 – 80 GeV. More than 7600 SiPMs – the highest number ever used – performed well over the ...

Validation of Geant4 and Fluka Hadronic Physics with Pixel Test-Beam Data

In this note we present an update of the validation of Geant4 hadronic physics against the ATLAS pixel 2001 test-beam data. Furthermore, we also report the comparison with Fluka simulation, using the same Geant4 geometry, navigation and digitization.

Comparison of GEANT4 Simulations with Experimental Data for Thick Al Absorbers

Proton beams in medical applications deal with relatively thick targets like the human head or trunk. Therefore, relatively small differences in the total proton stopping power given, for example, by the different models provided by GEANT4 can lead to significant disagreements in the final proton energy spectra when integrated along lengthy proton trajectories. This work presents proton energy ...

a comparison of teachers and supervisors, with respect to teacher efficacy and reflection

supervisors play an undeniable role in training teachers, before starting their professional experience by preparing them, at the initial years of their teaching by checking their work within the proper framework, and later on during their teaching by assessing their progress. but surprisingly, exploring their attributes, professional demands, and qualifications has remained a neglected theme i...
