Abstract:

In order to understand the resolution requirements of the HALL D detector, the MCFast program has been used to simulate the tracking elements in the LASS solenoidal field at B=2.24T. The tracks have been generated at 10 distinct total momenta, and then binned in 5 wide bins from 0 to 180. These tracks have then been tracked through the detector as shown in figure 1.
