MC simulation of the ATLAS hadronic calorimeter performance

Several MC studies of the tile hadronic calorimeter (Tilecal) using GEANT3 and GEANT4 have been done after tuning the code with data from tests with high energy particle beams at CERN. The comparison between the two codes started with the study of the simulation of the electromagnetic interactions a...

Sumario:Several MC studies of the tile hadronic calorimeter (Tilecal) using GEANT3 and GEANT4 have been done after tuning the code with data from tests with high energy particle beams at CERN. The comparison between the two codes started with the study of the simulation of the electromagnetic interactions and results are presented. A preliminary study of the evaluation of the simulation of the hadronic interactions is also presented. (3 refs).
