Matter deviation of 45 GeV muons in GEANT3 and GEANT4: a comparison with L3 data

We have studied the deviation of muons traversing the L3 detector due to the multiple scattering and the production of secondaries. We have analysed LEP I e+e- -> Z/gamma -> mu+mu- events from 1994 and 1995 data. We have compared the data with the predictions of GEANT3.15 and GEANT4.0....

description We have studied the deviation of muons traversing the L3 detector due to the multiple scattering and the production of secondaries. We have analysed LEP I e+e- -> Z/gamma -> mu+mu- events from 1994 and 1995 data. We have compared the data with the predictions of GEANT3.15 and GEANT4.0.1 and we have seen some disagreement in the case GEANT3 but a good matching to the data in the case of GEANT4.
