Title :
Interactions of hadrons in the CALICE silicon tungsten electromagnetic calorimeter
Author_Institution :
CALICE collaboration, France
Abstract :
The CALICE collaboration develops prototypes for highly granular calorimeters for detectors at a future linear electron positron collider. The highly granular electromagnetic calorimeter prototype was tested in particle beams. We present the study of hadronic showers in this prototype.
