Title: Improvement of the technique of identification of electrons and positrons with use of electromagnetic calorimeter of the CLAS detector

Journal Article · · Journal of Contemporary Physics

We study the dependence of the sensitivity of response of the electromagnetic calorimeter of CLAS plant on the momenta of electrons and positrons. We made calculation of this dependence and elaborated a method for its employment in identification of e- and e+. We have shown that the new method of selection of e- and e+ improves the quality of identification by about 10%. We used the experimental data obtained with the plant CLAS of linear accelerator at Jefferson laboratory (USA).
