Abstract

The computer code system CALOR has been used to simulate data taken with a large segmented liquid argon/iron calorimeter at Fermilab. The resulting energy and angular distributions along with the longitudinal and transverse shower shapes are compared to experimental data in the range 1-38 GeV. Results are presented extending the Monte Carlo simulations to 125 GeV. The energy resolution of an incident hadron can be determined with a resolution σE/E = (7.6 + 29.2/√E)% and its direction with a resolution of σ(θ) = 22.7 + 390/E) mrad (where E is in GeV).
