Abstract

The KLM detector or K_⁰L- Muon Detector is equipped on the outermost layer of the Belle II detector structure. The detector is designed to detect the K_L mesons and muons above 600 MeV/c with high efficiency. The barrel shaped region around the intersection point covers a polar angular range of 45° to 125° while the forward and backward end caps extend this range to 20° to 155°. With the upgraded Geant4 model we observe the effectiveness of the new PhysicsList.
