1 Simulation study of scintillatorbased calorimeter Hiroyuki Matsunaga (Tsukuba) For GLD-CAL & ACFA-SIM-J groups Main contributors: M. C. Chang, K. Fujii, T. Takeshita, S. Yamauchi, A. Nagano, S. Kim Simulation and Reconstruction session LCWS5 at Stanford

2 Motivation Basic studies of calorimeter behavior for single particle in simple (testbeam) configuration Energy resolution, linearity lateral/longitudinal shower profiles It is extremely important to understand lateral shower profile for particle flow analysis Comparison with previous testbeam results Understand the detector responses in detail Get detector effects which should be implemented in full simulator 25/3/21 H. Matsunaga, LCWS5 2

3 Outline Range cut study for Geant4 Tile-scintillator ECAL Energy resolution Strip-scintillator ECAL Energy resolution, linearity lateral / longitudinal shower profiles Summary and Outlook 25/3/21 H. Matsunaga, LCWS5 3

4 Range cut Geant4 parameter set by user How it works? When the range of the particle for the next step is calculated to be less than the range cut, GEANT4 kills the particle and deposits all of its energy there. A secondary particle is not created if its range is less than the range cut. 1mm by default Used Geant4 6.2p2 Problem in EM process for thin material; Should be fixed in 7. patch-1 (claimed by Geant4 team) 25/3/21 H. Matsunaga, LCWS5 4

5 Energy cuts vs. Range cuts in scintillator Default range cut (1mm) seems too large Default range cut Energy Cuts vs. Range Cuts Energy Cuts (kev) e + / e µm γ 1 1 Range Cuts (mm) 25/3/21 H. Matsunaga, LCWS5 5

6 Energy cuts vs. Range cuts for e +/ e - and γ Large difference between absorbers and active media at larger range cuts Energy Cuts vs. Range Cuts W Energy Cuts vs. Range Cuts W Energy Cuts (kev) Default range cut Default range cut 1 1 Range Cuts (mm) Pb Energy Cuts (kev) µm 1µm 4 CsI Sci Range Cuts (mm) 25/3/21 H. Matsunaga, LCWS5 6 Pb CsI Sci

7 Energy deposits vs. Range cuts Two configurations with same radiation length 2.5mm W / 1mm Sci 4mm Pb / 1mm Sci Threshold behavior seen from ~.3 to ~1 µm Gap ~7.5 MeV (Pb/Sci) More energy deposits in absorber at higher range cuts 27.5 MeV vs. 2MeV in scintillator (Pb/Sci) Sum of energy deposit is constant Abs Energy Deposit vs. Range Cuts 98 Energy Deposit (MeV) W-Sci Pb-Sci Sci Energy Deposit vs. Range Cuts Energy Deposit (MeV) Pb-Sci W-Sci µm ~7.5 MeV Range Cuts (mm) ~7.5 MeV Range Cuts (mm) 25/3/21 H. Matsunaga, LCWS5 7

8 Decompose contributions from Threshold effect comes mainly from multiple scattering Most frequent process mean-free-path for multiple scattering is around the threshold region Should set the range cut ~1 µm or less (limited by CPU) Will try to check again with 7.p1 physics effects Pb(4mm)/Sci(1mm) Energy deposit in scintillator Energy Deposit vs. Range Cuts Energy Deposit (MeV) Range Cuts (mm) 25/3/21 H. Matsunaga, LCWS switch off: mutiple scattering switch off: Photo-electric effect all included switch off: Compton scattering switch off: electron Bremsstrahlung switch off: Gamma conversion (pair production) switch off: electron Ionisation

9 ECAL Energy Resolution 4mm Pb / 1mm Sci., electron injection 16 %/ E with ~1 µm range cuts (.3, 1, 3 µm) Nearly expected values Energy Resolution vs. Beam Energy Energy Resolution: σ/e (%) µm 16 1µm 14.3µ m Energy Resolution vs. Beam Energy Energy Resolution: σ/ E (%) µm 16 1µm 14.3µ m Beam Energy (GeV) Beam Energy (GeV) 25/3/21 H. Matsunaga, LCWS5 9

10 Energy Resolution for various Pb thicknesses Compare with testbeam results (T45 & T411 at KEK ) Scintillator thickness is 2mm (fixed), 1-4 GeV electron beam MC results are slightly better than data MC does not include detector effects, e.g. photo statistics Energy Resolution vs. Beam Energy σ/e (%) Data 16:2 MC 14:2 12:2 1:2 8:2 6:2 4:2 Data MC lead:scintillator (in mm) Data MC Data MC Beam Energy (GeV) 25/3/21 H.
