Modeling the Production of Charmed Particles in the Geant4 Software

  • Published:
Bulletin of the Russian Academy of Sciences: Physics Aims and scope

Abstract

It is expected that charmed particles will be copiously produced at Future Circular Collider (FCC). Due to relatively long lifetimes of the particles, it will be necessary to consider their interactions with the surrounding materials and materials of the detector. To satisfy these requirements, charmed particle production in soft interactions is studied using the QGS and FTF models of the Geant4 package. Details of these studies are considered in this work.
