Abstract
We have constructed a mock-up model consisting of nine elements to eva luate the space and energy resolution of the NaBi(WO4)(2) crystal elec tromagnetic calorimeter. The characteristics of the mock-up model have been studied with a 700 MeV electron beam. It is shown that with cell dimensions of about 2.4 cm one can achieve an accuracy of < 4 mm in m easuring the coordinates. The investigations have shown that the calor imeter has fast operation, satisfactory energy resolution and good spa ce resolution characteristics.
