CALOR is a Monte Carlo program package, written in FORTRAN IV, that is designed to assist experimentalists in evaluating and analyzing different types of calorimeter systems that are used in many high-energy physics experiments to determine the energy and direction of incident hadrons, leptons, and photons. This code package is intended to be used with the code package HETC which supplies needed information on the transport of hadrons and on the spatial location of the electromagnetic source energy. Input and output for a sample problem are presented.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
