Description

HADES is a large acceptance spectrometer operating at SIS18, GSI, Germany. It is aimed at exploration of QCD phase diagram at the ion beam energies of 1-2 AGeV in the region of high hadron densities. HADES setup includes a superconducting toroidal magnet, sets of drift chambers, ring-imaging Cherenkov detector, TOF systems and a new electromagnetic calorimeter (ECAL).
The Ecal detector covers almost full azimutal angle and range of polar angles 12 ̊ < θ < 45 ̊. In order to extract yield of π0 mesons through its π0→γγ decay the acceptance corrections are needed. This talk is devoted to the procedure of determination of acceptance of the ECal detector.
