Reconstruction & PFA
- Henri Videau (Laboratoire Leprince-Ringuet (LLR)-Ecole Polytechnique)
The Particle Flow approach to calorimetry requires highly granular calorimeters and sophisticated software in order to reconstruct and identify individual particles in complex event topologies. Within the CALICE collaboration, several concepts for highly granular calorimeters are studied. The Analog Hadron Calorimeter (AHCAL) concept is a sampling calorimeter of tungsten or steel absorber...
The physics research on the future International Linear Collider(ILC) needs both state-of-the-art detectors and dedicated software with high performance. In this article, a software to reconstruct final state particles in the jet environment, ArborPFA, is elaborated. Using multiple pattern recognition algorithms and the high granularity of calorimeters, particles are reconstructed by...
CALICE collaboration is developing highly granular calorimeters suitable for individual
reconstruction of particles in the jets and for Particle Flow Algorithms. Such calorimeters
should provide the best jet energy resolution at future high energy e + e - colliders. At high jet
energies, typically above 100 GeV, the jet particle showers start to overlap, and the
resolution is determined by the...
