Abstract
An electromagnetic scintillation calorimeter using liquid krypton or x enon as the working medium has been built. The calorimeter consists of 45 tapered light-collecting cells with dimensions of (2.1 x 2.1) x 40 x (4.15 x 4.15) cm made from aluminum-coated mylar film 50 mum thick. The light from each cell is detected by photomultipliers. The calorim eter filled with liquid krypton was exposed to a beam of secondary par ticles with a momentum of 400 MeV/c from the ITEP accelerator. The res ults of the first test are given.
