The method of the low-energy antiproton identification by stopping in the coordinate- sensitive PAMELA calorimeter 1 Svetlana Rodenko (MEPhI) Moscow International conference on particle physics and astrophysics National Research Nuclear University MEPhI 5-10 October 2015

An interaction between p and the calorimeter matter 2 By deflection in the magnetic field; By searching for an annihilation in the calorimeter matter; The identification of antiprotons:

Electromagnetic calorimeter 3 The imaging calorimeter is used for separation of electrons and positrons from antiproton and proton.

Simulation 4  Antiprotons: 0.75 GeV in the aperture of PAMELA.  Protons: 0.35 ‒ 0.95, 1, 1.1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 5, 7.5, 10, 12.5, 15 GeV.  π -mesons: 0.75, 1, 1.25, 1.5, 1.75, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 5, 7.5, 10, 12.5, 15 GeV.  We want to identify an antiprotons on a background of protons and π -mesons.

The antiproton identification algorithm 5  Search for the point of entry of particle into the calorimeter and calculation  Search for the point of annihilation and calculation  Analysis of topology of annihilation (tracks of secondary particles)

Searching for the point of entry into the calorimeter 6

7 Searching for point of annihilation  Select the first few points with maximum energy release  Connect them with the point of entry  Calculate an energy release in cylinder around this direction ± 1 strip  Select cylinder with the maximum energy release

The energy release distribution 8 Energy release, mip Event p (1 GeV) p (2.5 GeV) p (5 GeV) _ p (0.75 GeV) the point of entry the point of annihilation

Conclusion 16  AC and TOF may be used for protons and high energy π - mesons rejection.  High energy protons have a speed close to 1 ( β ~ 1), antiprotons are slow, therefore it is possible to build a velocity distribution measured by the TOF and cut off protons.  Apply a method to experimental data
