Performance of a sampling calorimeter with alternate U and Fe absorbers

1986

Abstract A sampling hadronic calorimeter, consisting of a sandwich of scintillator plates and alternate U and Fe absorbers, has been tested in a 135 GeV energy beam. The energy resolution turns out to be significantly improved with respect to the homogeneous configurations in which only U or Fe absorbers are used.
