Description

An experimental study of xenon–cesium iodide interactions at a kinetic energy of 3.8 AGeV was conducted during the first physics run of the BM@N experiment. The BM@N setup incorporates forward detectors: the Forward Hadron Calorimeter (FHCal) and the Forward Quartz Cherenkov Hodoscope (FQH), which are employed to determine the geometry of nuclear collisions. This work presents a comparison of the experimentally measured responses of the FHCal and FQH with the corresponding simulated responses obtained using the DCM–QGSM–SMM event generator.
