Detection of Electrons with EPHIN
Abstract
Characterization of EPHIN (Electron, Proton and Helium Instrument) response to electron detection is presented here. A Monte Carlo simulation code based on GEANT 3.21 has been used. The geometrical factor dependence on the energy has been evaluated and contamination of EPHIN channels with other energy electrons has been obtained.
