Abstract
A liquid argon hadronic calorimeter using the ''accordion'' geometry a nd the electrostatic transformer readout scheme has been tested at CER N, together with a liquid argon accordion electromagnetic prototype. T he results obtained for pions on the linearity, the energy resolution and the uniformity of the calorimeter response are well within the req uirements for operation at the LHC.
