Description

The ECAL in T2K's 280m Near Detector is a Lead/scintillator tracking calorimeter. The relatively coarse resolution of such a detector makes a comprehensive particle identification a challenging task. This poster describes a particle identification algorithm that has been developed for the ECAL subdetector. The algorithm can separate tracks from showering particles and work is ongoing to distinguish between Hadronic and Electromagnetic showers.
