1. GEANT4 simulations for the Lund R 3 B prototype Douglas Di Julio Lund University, Lund, Sweden

2. Outline TSL proton tests GEANT4 proton simulations Preliminary GEANT4  -ray simulations

3. Experimental tests at TSL 180 MeV Protons 1 mm thick 60x60 mm 2 SSSDs Prototype Beam profile 180 MeV protons Two-1mm thick SSSDs –Beam positioning and electronic collimator Goal: measure resolution of the crystals and to test gain corrected summing Calibration: Cu Collimator Beam spot ~40 mm 2

4. Energy Resolution Resolution measured with the Lund R3B calorimeter Compilation of energy resolution data

5. Gain Corrected Summing At 180 MeV: –21% events lost to inelastic processes –32% recovered from add back –47% deposit full energy in single crystal At 300 MeV, no events deposit full energy, however 60% can be recovered by gain correct summing GEANT4 simulations

6. Gain Corrected Summing Gain corrected summing with central, above and below crystals M=1 events centered around proton incident energy M>1 events contained in structure shifted to lower energies

7. GEANT4 Simulations Material: CsI and Mylar for foils Vacuum gap between crystals 10x30 130 mm 15x42 10x10

8. Gain Corrected Summing Binary Cascade model used Resolution: R = 5.15E 1/2 Simulated Sum Spectrum

11. Gain Corrected Summing Reducing the foil thickness can reduce the effect Counteracts energy resolution presented earlier How does the reduced foil thickness effect light collection? M=2 events

12.
