MMS in front of the instrument, with ACD tile behind it. Important:*Tile "4" may have to be moved, because the beam has to shoot in its center, to eliminate the possibility of beam to physically miss the tile. ***Beam: 5 GeV normal incidence proton beam. Needed statistics~ 1M protons. If more - better. Desirably to increase the thickness of MMS (say have there 4 layers) to increase the effect - is there anything against it?

What was simulated - simple setup, with 12 cm thick (4 times thicker than the real MMS) "MMS", made of CH2 with 0.1 g/cm^3 density. The scintillator tile p- regular ACD tile, 1 cm thick. I did not do any light yield convesrion, just analyzed the energy deposited in ACD tile - I set a detection threshold at 400 KeV, which is ~0.2 normal incidence mip. Would be great if someone (Francesco?) could try this setup in Geant 4
