Tracking of low momentum particles in DCH using the new approach inserted in DchSimGeom (V00-02-00)
-
-
- The trajectory of the particle is studied in the plane XY Z=Zentrance point, See next picture;
- The position of the wires defining the cell in the same plane are used to make two by two a line like A,B and C in the picture;
- The intersections of the projected trajectory (circus) and each line throught the field wires make 2,1 or 0 solutions;
- If the position of the intersections are outside the cell region (like circus and line B in the picture) another line (A .... then C in the picture) is considered.
- If the intersection is in the cell region (like circus and line C in the picture) the step in the space is used to track the particle using the standard algorithms implemented in DchSimGeom for high momentum particles;
-
-
- For each crossing one hit is stored; in next picture 4 hits are stored for the same particle in the cell;
-
-
- If the trajectory is contained in the same cell (see next picture) the particle is stopped and only one hit is generated.
- We produced four samples of electrons originated on the outer surface of the inner cylinder of DCH.
The samples correspond to 100 events with electron momentum range [GeV/c]:

-
- 5x10-5 - 1x10-4
- 1x10-4 - 1x10-3
- 1x10-3 - 5x10-3
- 5x10-3 - 1x10-1
Theta [0 - 90] degrees
Phi [0 - 360] degrees
Xvert, Yvert = 23.7 cm
The hits multiplicity is shown in the picture:
- Particles with momentum less than 100 KeV/c and then Curvature Radius less than 2 mm produce just one hit (sample 1).
- Particles with momentum less than 1 MeV/c and then Curvature Radius less than 2 cm produce more hits (sample 2). The number is correlated to the particle direction.
- In the plot of the produced hits the region of the chamber related to the charge particles activities is shown. A large region can be
seen in the sample 4 while in the other three sample the region is reduced. In the sample 1 only one point is associated to the hits produced for the 100 events.
