Özet

GEANT4 simulation of the LPM effect in low Z material in an accelerator environment is presented. The difficulties to measure the LPM effect in low Z material are expressed and suitable solutions are proposed. An experimental setup is simulated using the proposed solution and found that it is possible to observe LPM effect in low Z material in the presence of secondary interactions at high energy accelerator environment such as CERN-SPS.
