Simulation of particle identification with the cluster counting technique

Abstract

In this paper we show the potential of the cluster counting technique for particle identification. Simulations based on Garfield++ software prove that this technique improves the particle separation capabilities with respect to the ones obtained with the traditional method of dE/dx. Moreover three different algorithms to reproduce the clusters number and the cluster size distribution with Geant4 software are discussed.
