Hadronic calibration of the ATLAS liquid argon end-cap calorimeter in the pseudorapidity region 1.6 <|$\eta$|< 1.8 in beam tests
A full azimuthal phi-wedge of the ATLAS liquid argon end-cap calorimeter has been exposed to beams of electrons, muons and pions in the energy range 6 GeV $\leqslant E \leqslant 200$ GeV at the CERN SPS. The angular region studied corresponds to the ATLAS impact position around the pseudorapidity in...

Sumario: | A full azimuthal phi-wedge of the ATLAS liquid argon end-cap calorimeter has been exposed to beams of electrons, muons and pions in the energy range 6 GeV $\leqslant E \leqslant 200$ GeV at the CERN SPS. The angular region studied corresponds to the ATLAS impact position around the pseudorapidity interval $1.6 < |\eta| < 1.8$. The beam test set-up is described. A detailed study of the performance is given as well as the related intercalibration constants obtained. Following the ATLAS hadronic calibration proposal, a first study of the hadron calibration using a weighting ansatz is presented. The results are compared to predictions from Monte Carlo simulations, based on GEANT3 and GEANT4 models. |
