Description
The study of heavy-ion collisions with intermediate energies is a key direction of the future experimental program at the NICA accelerator complex. Within the scope of the collider commissioning activities, the installation of Beam-Beam Counter (BBC) prototype (Phase 0) is planned at the SPD interaction point. To determine the preliminary operation conditions for the detector, the simulation of Xe+W collisions at 3 GeV/nucleon was performed using the Geant4 framework. Different event generators were used and compared to assess systematic uncertainties and enhance the reliability of the results. The simulation results are essential for optimizing the detector configuration and interpreting the first experimental data.
