Description

In the calorimetric particle detection, the hadronic energy resolution is considerably worse than the electromagnetic energy resolution. We understood the hadron shower physics and investigated the fundamental reasons to cause the poor performance in the measurement of hadron energy. Dual readout and compensation are two methods to remedy this problem. We evaluated these two methods and show the theoretical limits of the hadronic energy resolution of calorimeters in CALOR 2018.
