Calibrated Cosmic Muon Simulations for the HCal

By sl4859@columbia.edu, 11 July, 2022

This note describes the GEANT4 study with a cosmic muon generator with a realistic zenith angle and energy distribution to investigate the possibility of using cosmic muon events as a calibration source for the hadronic calorimeters (HCal's) when the full sPHENIX apparatus is in its data-taking position.
