Simulation of calorimeter response is important for modern high energy physics experiments. With increasingly large and high granularity design of calorimeters, the computational cost of conventional MC-based simulation of each particle-material interaction is becoming a major bottleneck.

We propose a new generative model based on a two-stage generative model which is similar to recently...

The efficient simulation of particle propagation and interaction within the detectors of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is of primary importance for precision measurements and new physics searches. The most computationally expensive simulations involve calorimeter showers, which will become ever more costly and high-dimensional as the Large Hadron Collider moves into its High Luminosity era. ...
