Benchmarking Hadronic Models in Geant4 for Detector Simulations

preprint2025arXivOpen access

Abstract

The construction of modern detectors used in high-energy physics experiments is typically guided by modeling with the Geant4 toolkit to evaluate detector performance in terms of geometrical acceptance and detection efficiency. Several hadronic models are available in Geant4 for modeling nuclear reactions induced by fast nucleons. It is shown that they result in different multiplicity and charge distributions of secondary particles and nuclear fragments. The impact of these differences on modeling the Highly-Granular Neutron Detector (HGND) prototype for the BM@N experiment at Nuclotron-based Ion Collider fAcility (NICA) is evaluated.
