| \sl A hadronic interaction of a $\pi^-$ with an incident kinetic energy of 10\,GeV in the Si-W ECAL. Top left: projection in the x-y plane of the reconstructed energy. Top right: projection on the x-z plane of the reconstructed energy. Bottom left: projection on the y-z plane of the reconstructed energy. Bottom right: the reconstructed energy in each layer of the Si-W ECAL. The energy unit is in MIPs. |
