PandoraPFA Tests using Overlaid Charged Pion Test Beam Data

  • 1. Institute for Theoretical and Experimental Physics ITEP, Moscow (Russian Federation)

Description

The test beam data obtained with CALICE calorimeter prototypes were used to test the PandoraPFA program. The program capability to recover a neutral hadron energy in the vicinity of a charged hadron was studied. The impact of overlapping of two hadron showers on energy resolution was investigated. The dependence of the confusion error on the distance between a 10 GeV neutral hadron and a charged pion was derived for pion energies of 10 and 30 GeV which are representative of a 100 GeV jet. The comparison of these test beam data results with Monte Carlo simulation using GEANT4 physics lists was performed.
