Περίληψη:
Studying atmospheric neutrino oscillations in the few-GeV range with a
multimegaton detector promises to determine the neutrino mass hierarchy.
This is the main science goal pursued by the future KM3NeT/ORCA water
Cherenkov detector in the Mediterranean Sea. In this paper, the
processes that limit the obtainable resolution in both energy and
direction in charged-current neutrino events in the ORCA detector are
investigated. These processes include the composition of the hadronic
fragmentation products, the subsequent particle propagation and the
photon-sampling fraction of the detector. GEANT simulations of neutrino
interactions in seawater produced by GENIE are used to study the effects
in the 1-20 GeV range. It is found that fluctuations in the hadronic
cascade in conjunction with the variation of the inelasticity y are most
detrimental to the resolutions. The effect of limited photon sampling in
the detector is of significantly less importance. These results will
therefore also be applicable to similar detectors/media, such as those
in ice.
