MINERvA合作项目在费米实验室测试束设施的强子测试束中对MINERvA探测器的固体闪烁体跟踪和取样量热计区域进行了按比例缩小的复制。本文报道了质子、介子和电子样品的测量，动量从0.35到2.0 GeV/c。对质子、介子和电子的量热响应是由这些数据得到的。从质子样品中提取了一个测量值和跟踪效率的估计值。总的来说，基于geant4的探测器和粒子相互作用的蒙特卡罗模拟很好地描述了数据，对量热响应的一致性优于4%，尽管数据的一些特征没有精确建模。这些测量用于调整MINERvA探测器模拟和评估系统不确定性，以支持MINERvA中微子截面测量程序。
The MINERvA collaboration operated a scaled-down replica of thesolid scintillator tracking and sampling calorimeter regions of the MINERvA detector in a hadron test beam at the Fermilab Test Beam Facility. This paper reports measurements with samples of protons, pions, and electrons from 0.35 to 2.0 GeV/c momentum. The calorimetric response to protons, pions, and electrons is obtained from these data. A measurement of the parameter in Birks׳ law and an estimate of the tracking efficiency are extracted from the proton sample. Overall the data are well described by a Geant4-based Monte Carlo simulation of the detector and particle interactions with agreements better than 4% for the calorimetric response, though some features of the data are not precisely modeled. These measurements are used to tune the MINERvA detector simulation and evaluate systematic uncertainties in support of the MINERvA neutrino cross-section measurement program.
