Monte Carlo studies of the CMS Electromagnetic Endcap Calorimeter

Various design options for the Electromagnetic Endcap Calorimeter have been simulated in GEANT to assess their impact on the physics performance of the detector. The crystal size and spacing, the inter-module spacing, the structural material used for the modules, and the nature of the pointing geome...

Sumario:Various design options for the Electromagnetic Endcap Calorimeter have been simulated in GEANT to assess their impact on the physics performance of the detector. The crystal size and spacing, the inter-module spacing, the structural material used for the modules, and the nature of the pointing geometry have all been varied, and the calorimeter response evaluated.
