Simulation Study of gamma / pi0 - Separation and e / h-Rejection Power in the STAR Barrel Electromagnetic Calorimeter with the Gaseous Shower Maximum Detector
Protvino, 1997.- p.14, figs. 9, refs.:13.


The gamma / pi0 - separation has been studied using a gaseous Shower Maximum Detector (SMD) positioned at four different locations inside the STAR Electromagnetic Calorimeter (EMC), $3X_o$, $4X_o$, $5X_o$ and $7X_o$, for various energies of the incident particles in the range from 3 to 25 GeV.

Also the electron--hadron rejection power of the STAR EMC with the gaseous SMD has been evaluated for two SMD positions within the EMC stack at the energies from 2 to 30 GeV.
