The dual phase argon Time Projection Chamber TPC is a partióle detector consisting of a cylindrical chamber containing argon (liquid and gas) that are separated by grids and a Large Electron Multiplier LEM. Besides, a set of silicon photomultipliers SiPMs are placed at both extremes. This detector is used in the study of scintillation and ionizing events detection caused by charged particles that interact with the argon, the ionization electrons produced in this interaction, after drifting in the volume of liquid argon LAr are extracted by a group of grids in the gas phase and introduced into the holes of a LEM, where the charge amplification takes place, to finally be detected by the SiPMs. In the present work, the dual phase TPC is simulated schematically using Geant4, as well as the response of the physical processes through FTFP_BERT (Bertini cascade model and pre-composed model) as a hadronic model and Nu-Beam as a neutrino beam. In addition, the optoelectronic characteristics of SiPMs are analyzed. The model is used to identify the associated production of particles through neutrino-nucleus interactions. Results obtained in the simulation suggest that such identifica¬ron is possible with the dual phase TPC and can be obtained more reliable results by further refining the simulation.
