Abstract
A set of CsI(pure) crystals have been tested for use as an electromagn etic calorimeter for pi(o) detection in photonuclear reactions at phot on energies below 1.2 GeV. Performances of the calorimeter including e nergy and position resolution are studied by using the electron and ta gged-photon beams at the INS-Tokyo electron synchrotron. In the first experiment for the nuclear coherent pi(o) photoproduction carried out at INS, a pi(o) mass resolution of 7 MeV (rms) has been obtained in th e pi(o) energy region between 0.5 and 1.0 GeV.
