Resumo: Liquid Argon Time Projection Chambers (LArTPCs) are ideal detectors for precision neutrino physics, but their technology is not completely mastered so far. In order to achieve a complete domain over the technology, the Liquid Argon In A Testbeam (LArIAT) experiment was built. LArIAT consists of a LArTPC placed at a dedicated calibration test beamline at Fermilab. In 2016 LArIAT performed the first pion-argon cross section measurement in history. The Aerogel Cherenkov detectors and the Muon Range Stack (MuRS) detector are auxiliary detectors whose purpose is to separate incoming pions and muons at the Time Projection Chamber (TPC) and separate the through-going muons and pions from the TPC, respectively. These detectors' data were not used on this first analysis due to the lack of people working on their data reconstruction. Therefore, on this work we used as tool the Geant4 Monte Carlo software to characterize the MuRS detector and quantify its purity and efficiency on muon/pion separation.

Apesar de seu potencial, a tecnologia ainda não é perfeitamente dominada. Com este objetivo em mente, o experimento Liquid Argon In A Testbeam (LArIAT) foi construído. O LArIAT consiste em uma câmara de projeção temporal colocada em uma linha de feixe dedicada. Em 2016, o LArIAT apresentou a primeira medida de seção de choque entre píons e argônio líquido da história. Na ocasião da publicação deste resultado, dois dos detectores acessórios do experimento ainda não tinham seus dados reconstruídos: o detector Cherenkov de aerogel e o Muon Range Stack (MuRS). O último é o foco deste trabalho. O objetivo fundamental do MuRS é permitir a distinção entre píons e múons cujas trajetórias não estão completamente contidas dentro do LArTPC. Para investigar a capacidade do detector de distinguir múons e píons e quantificar sua eficiência e pureza, este trabalho simulou a interação de píons e múons com o detector via Monte Carlo utilizando o Geant4.Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior - CAPESapplication/pdfengUniversidade Federal de GoiásPrograma de Pós-graduação em Fisica (IF)UFGBrasilInstituto de Física - IF (RG)http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessLArIATNeutrinoFermilabSimulação de Monte CarloMonte Carlo SimulationCIENCIAS EXATAS E DA TERRA::FISICALArIAT’s muon range stack characterization using Monte Carlo simulationCaracterização do detector muon range Stack do experimento LArIAT usando simulação de Monte Carloinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesis3162138865744262028600600600600-4029658853652049306-83271462965037459292075167498588264571reponame:Repositório Institucional da UFGinstname:Universidade Federal de Goiás (UFG)instacron:UFGORIGINALDissertação - Ohana Benevides Rodrigues - 2018.pdfDissertação - Ohana Benevides Rodrigues - 2018.pdfapplication/pdf55370195http://repositorio.bc.ufg.br/tede/bitstreams/d61ade23-ac83-42ab-bfae-070fdc33691f/download561eb17a68ab26adaad81c0fca8020afMD55LICENSElicense.txtlicense.txttext/plain;
