| Summary: | It is proposed to replace existing Zero Degree Calorimeter of the BM@N setup at the Nuclotron (JINR) by a new forward hadron calorimeter for the measurement of the collision centrality and reaction plane orientation in heavy ions experiments. This calorimeter with transverse and longitudinal segmentation will be assembled from modules presently constructed for FHCal MPD and PSD CBM. The proposed design of the new calorimeter, simulation results for centrality and reaction plane determination by the new calorimeter, as well as radiation doses in the calorimeter simulated by FLUKA are discussed. The performance of hadron calorimeter supermodule studied at CERN is shown. |
