Tracks of hadronic showers in the CALICE Si-W ECAL physics prototype.

2019 
A detailed investigation of hadronic interactions is performed using $\pi^-$ data with energies in the range 2-10 GeV, recorded at FNAL in 2008, incident on a high granularity silicon-tungsten electromagnetic calorimeter. The region in which primary $\pi^-$ interact with the detector material and the secondary particles produced are characterised using a novel track-finding algorithm that reconstructs tracks within hadronic showers in a calorimeter in the absence of a magnetic field. The principle of carrying out detector monitoring and calibration using MIP-like tracks is also demonstrated.
