Abstract

Description

Muons can be identified with high efficiency and purity and reconstructed with high precision is a detector with a dual readout calorimeter and a dual solenoid to return the flux without iron. We shown CERN test beam data for the calorimeter and calculations for the magnetic fields and the track reconstruction. For isolated tracks, the rejection of pions against muons ranges from $10^3$ at 20 GeV/c to $10^5$ at 300 GeV/c.
