  2. PID in ECAL PID in CBM • In CBM, the particle identification (PID) is realized in TOF, TRD, RICH and ECAL • The main object of ECAL PID is to discriminate photons and e+- from other particles • The ECAL PID is based mainly on an investigation of transverse shower shape analysis • A subject of this study is to perform the ECAL PID by using just longitudinal shower shape analysis • The most simple case has been studied when ECAL module consists of 2 longitudinal segments • This case is very close to the current design of ECAL, since it consists of preshower and ECAL modules • Method used is to analyse 2D plot, namely an energy deposition in the 1st segment of ECAL module versus an energy deposition in the whole ECAL module

  3. PID in ECAL PID in ECAL • Photon can be identified in ECAL by several methods: • Track matching with ECAL cluster • Time of flight measured by ECAL • Lateral shower shape • Longitudinal shower profile

  4. PID in ECAL Simulation model • Framework – cbmroot as a new detector module segcal • 1 ECAL module with 160 layers (Pb 0.7 mm + Sci 1.0 mm)‏ • 20 longitudinal segments, each one consists of 8 layers • Effective radiation length of the ECAL module: 1.335 cm • Total radiation length of the ECAL module: 20.4 X0 • A single primary particle (photon, muon, pion, kaon, proton, neutron, antineutron and Lambda(1115)) with energies 1, 2, 3, ..., 23, 24, 25 GeV

  5. PID in ECAL Various combinations of segment thickness: • 1 X0 (in 1st segment) + 19 X0 (in 2nd segment)‏ • 2 X0 (in 1st segment) + 18 X0 (in 2nd segment)‏ • 3 X0 (in 1st segment) + 17 X0 (in 2nd segment)‏ • 4 X0 (in 1st segment) + 16 X0 (in 2nd segment)‏ • 5 X0 (in 1st segment) + 15 X0 (in 2nd segment)‏ • 6 X0 (in 1st segment) + 14 X0 (in 2nd segment)‏ • 7 X0 (in 1st segment) + 13 X0 (in 2nd segment)‏ • 8 X0 (in 1st segment) + 12 X0 (in 2nd segment)‏ • 9 X0 (in 1st segment) + 11 X0 (in 2nd segment)‏ • 10 X0 (in 1st segment) + 10 X0 (in 2nd segment)‏ • 11 X0 (in 1st segment) + 9 X0 (in 2nd segment)‏ • 12 X0 (in 1st segment) + 8 X0 (in 2nd segment)‏ • 13 X0 (in 1st segment) + 7 X0 (in 2nd segment)‏ • 14 X0 (in 1st segment) + 6 X0 (in 2nd segment)‏ • 15 X0 (in 1st segment) + 5 X0 (in 2nd segment)‏ • 16 X0 (in 1st segment) + 4 X0 (in 2nd segment)‏ • 17 X0 (in 1st segment) + 3 X0 (in 2nd segment)‏ • ‏18 X0 (in 1st segment) + 2 X0 (in 2nd segment)‏ • ‏19 X0 (in 1st segment) + 1 X0 (in 2nd segment)‏ Particle identification is based on relation between the total energy and the energy in the first segment: E1 vs Etot

  29. PID in ECAL Conclusion • The 1st practical realization of the well known procedure for performing the ECAL PID in the 1D case (whole ECAL module) and the 2D case (ECAL module with 2 segments) were done • The probabilities for hadrons and muons of various momenta P to fake a photon of various energies E were obtained. For example, in the segment structure 14X0+6X0, 5 GeV photon can be faked by 5.3e-03 of 6 GeV/c neutrons, by 2.9e-02 of 6 GeV/c K0L, by 4.8e-02 of 6 GeV/c antineutrons, by 5.1e-03 of 6 GeV/c Lambda(1115), by 4.7e-02 of 6 GeV/c pi-, by 3.4e-02 of 6 GeV/c pi+, by 5.4e-03 of 6 GeV/c protons, by 6.0e-05 of 7 GeV/c muons • The probabilities for hadrons of ANY momenta P (integrated over momenta of the hadrons) to fake a photon of various energies E were obtained. For example, in the segment structure 14X0+6X0, 5 GeV photon can be faked by • 9.110-4 of neutrons, • 1.7 10-4 of K0L, • 3.5 10-6 of antineutrons, • 1.5 10-4 of Lambda(1115), • 1.210-3 of -, • 9.8 10-4 of +, • 8.810-4 of protons • PID has been studied for 19 combinations of segment thickness. The most optimum segment combinations are 14X0+6X0 and 15X0+5X0.
