Calorimeters based on silicon core fibres embedded into an absorber have been simulated by combining the GEANT 3.16 package and a proprietary routine describing Cherenkov photon production in optical fibres. The good agreement between simulation results and experimental data allows to study, with a high degree of confidence, the design of a prototype hadronic detector and of different calorimeter configurations to cover the very forward regions of an LHC experiment.

Abstract
Calorimeters based on silicon core fibres embedded into an absorber have been simulated by combining the GEANT 3.16 package and a proprietary routine describing Cherenkov photon production in optical fibres. The good agreement between simulation results and experimental data allows to study, with a high degree of confidence, the design of a prototype hadronic detector and of different calorimeter configurations to cover the very forward regions of an LHC experiment.File in questo prodotto:
