Description
Fast simulation of showers in calorimeters is very important
for particle physics analysis since shower simulation typically
takes significant amount of the simulation time. At the same
time, a simulation must reproduce experimental data in the
best possible way. In this paper, a fast simulation of showers
in two calorimeters of the H1 experiment is presented. High
speed and good quality of shower simulation is achieved by
using a shower library technique in which the detector response
is simulated using a collection of stored showers for different
particle types and topologies. The library is created using the
GEANT programme. The fast simulation based on shower library
is compared to the data collected by the H1 experiment.
