Hadronic Shower Shape Studies in Geant4 : Update
نویسندگان
چکیده
An update of the status of the simulation of hadronic shower shapes in Geant4 for high-energy calorimetry applications, relevant, in particular, for the experiments at the LHC, is shortly described. This report is a follow up of the studies presented in the note [1]. The main improvements are the inclusion of quasi-elastic scattering, in the high-energy string models, and Bertini cascade. We recommend the Physics List QGSP BERT for simulations of the LHC experiments.

Geant4 hadronic physics status and validation for large HEP detectors
Optimal exploitation of hadronic final states played a key role in successes of all recent collider experiment in HEP, and the ability to use hadronic final states will continue to be one of the decisive issues during the analysis phase of the LHC experiments. Monte Carlo techniques facilitate the use of hadronic final states, and have been developed for many years. We will give a brief overvie...

متن کاملThe response of Geant4 hadronic models to the study of neutrons produced in proton irradiation to the light materials
Neutron is one of the products of the interaction of high energy protons with light nuclei. Using computational Monte Carlo codes, it is possible to calculate and predict the neutron spectrum, neutron flux, and doses by simulating the system. But the use of different hadronic models in this process can influence the results of these calculations. In this research, the response of the four hadro...
متن کاملNew Hadroproduction results from the HARP / PS 214 experiment at CERN PS
The HARP experiment at the CERN Proton Synchroton has collected data for hadroproduction measurements with a large set of targets, ranging from hydrogen to lead, in the momentum range 3.0-15 GeV/c, covering an extended angular range (0.025 ≤ θ ≤ 2.15 rad) with a redundant particle identification. Obtained results may be used for the tuning of neutrino beamline simulations, going from convention...
