In this paper the capability of GHEISHA as hadron shower generator is investigated and discussed by comparing the test run data from the ALEPH hadron calorimeter prototype with the Monte Carlo simulation developed in the GEANT3 framework. The results on muon, electron and pion simulation are reported. The longitudinal development of hadron showers is well reproduced and saturation effects are also explained. The resolution of the calorimeter for incident pions as computed by the Monte Carlo method is slightly larger than what observed.

Abstract

In this paper the capability of GHEISHA as hadron shower generator is investigated and discussed by comparing the test run data from the ALEPH hadron calorimeter prototype with the Monte Carlo simulation developed in the GEANT3 framework. The results on muon, electron and pion simulation are reported. The longitudinal development of hadron showers is well reproduced and saturation effects are also explained. The resolution of the calorimeter for incident pions as computed by the Monte Carlo method is slightly larger than what observed.
