Parameterization of $e$ and $\gamma$ initiated showers in the NOMAD lead-glass calorimeter

A description of the response of the NOMAD electromagnetic calorimeter to electrons and photons is discussed. In particular the dependence of the two-dimensional shower shape on the angle and energy of the incident particle is parametrized by analytical functions. Some applications to the neutrino e...

Descripción
Sumario:A description of the response of the NOMAD electromagnetic calorimeter to electrons and photons is discussed. In particular the dependence of the two-dimensional shower shape on the angle and energy of the incident particle is parametrized by analytical functions. Some applications to the neutrino event reconstruction are also reported.
