Description
High density electromagnetic sandwich calorimeters with high readout granularity are considered for many future collider and fix-targer experiments. Optimization of the calorimeter structure from the point of view of the electromagnetic shower energy, position and direction measurement is one of the key aspects of the design. However, mostly uniform sampling structures were considered so far. We developed a semi-analytical approach to study calorimeter performance based on the detailed Geant 4 simulation, which also allows to compare the expected performance for different non-uniform longitudinal readout structures. This methodology enables us to find out the best calorimeter instrumentation pattern upon a specified usage scenario or optimization goal.
