Simulating the Moller scattering background for EG12

GEANT4 Simulation of Moller Events

Determine the Moller background using an LH2 target to check the physics in GEANT4

Incident electron energy varies from 1-11 GeV.

LH2 target is a cylinder with a 1.5 cm diameter and 1 cm thickness.

  (Following dimensions listed on page 8 of File:PHY02-33.pdf)

Numbers Moller electrons per incident electron.

  While 2nd and 3rd generations are created, only 2 2nd generation daughter particles are created for 1E6 incident particles.  All knock on electrons are not counted.

Momentum distributions in the Lab Frame.

Estimated Momentum Distribution

DV_Calculations_of_4-momentum_components

For an incoming electron with momentum of 11GeV, we should find the momentum in the center of mass to be around 53 MeV which is confirmed in the the data/plots.

Comparing experimental vs. theoretical for Møller differential cross section 11GeV

Using the equation from [1]

[math]\frac{d\sigma}{d\Omega}=\frac{ e^4 }{8E^2}\left \{\frac{1+cos^4\frac{\theta}{2}}{sin^4\frac{\theta}{2}}+\frac{1+sin^4\frac{\theta}{2}}{cos^4\frac{\theta}{2}}+\frac{2}{sin^2\frac{\theta}{2}cos^2\frac{\theta}{2}} \right \}[/math]


where [math]\alpha=\frac{e^2}{\hbar c}\quad with\quad \hbar = c =1[/math]


This can be simplified to the form


[math]\frac{d\sigma}{d\Omega}=\frac{ \alpha^2 }{4E^2}\frac{ (3+cos^2\theta)^2}{sin^4\theta}[/math]

Plugging in the values expected for a scattering electron:



[math]\alpha ^2=5.3279\times 10^{-5}[/math]


[math]E\approx 53 MeV[/math]


Using unit analysis on the term outside the parantheses, we find that the differential cross section for an electron at this momentum should be around

[math]\frac{5.3279\times 10^{-5}}{4\times 2.81\times 10^{15}eV^2}=4.74\times 10^{-21} eV^{-2}=\frac{4.74\times 10^{-21}}{1eV^2}\times \frac{1\times 10^{18}eV^2 }{1\ GeV^2}=\frac{.0047}{GeV^2}[/math]

Using the conversion of


[math]\frac{1}{1GeV^2}=.3894 mb[/math]


[math]\frac{1\ GeV^{-2}}{.3894\ mb}=\frac{.0047\ GeV^{-2}}{x\ mb}[/math]

We find that the differential cross section scale is [math]\frac{d\sigma}{d\Omega}\approx 1.8\times 10^{-3}mb=1.8\mu b[/math]


Converting the number of electrons to barns,

[math]L=\frac{i_{scattered}}{\sigma} \approx i_{scattered}\times \rho_{target}\times l_{target}[/math]


where ρtarget is the density of the target material, ltarget is the length of the target, and iscattered is the number of incident particles scattered.


[math]\rho_{target}\times l_{target}=\frac{70.85 kg}{1 m^3}\times \frac{1 mole}{2.02 g} \times \frac{1000g}{1 kg} \times \frac{6\times10^{23} atoms}{1 mole} \times \frac{1m^3}{(100 cm)^3} \times \frac{1 cm}{ } \times \frac{10^{-24} cm^{2}}{barn} =2.10\times 10^{-2} barns[/math]


[math]\frac{1}{\rho_{target}\times l_{target} \times 4\times 10^7}=1.19\times 10^{-6} barns[/math]

Combining these plots, and rescaling the Final Theta in the Center of Mass for micro-barns, we find
