Abstract
The studies presented in this thesis concern the physics potential and the detector RD the high granularity of the hadronic calorimeter allows to identify and measure the δ-rays produced by a 120 GeV muon. A correlation function between the energy deposited in the scintillator and in the absorber based on these higher order effects is found in order to reconstruct the total energy deposited by a 120 GeV muon in the AHCAL. The e/mip ratio of the AHCAL is extracted from the muon response as 0.897± 0.001stat ± 0.057syst. With a combined analysis of the information of the AHCAL and the Muon Tracker Tail Catcher the probability (Pμ) of muon emission from a shower of a pion with energy Eπ is found to be Pμ = (0.9± 0.4stat ± 0.1syst) · 10−5 ×Eπ.
