Abstract
The energy characteristics of a hadron sampling calorimeter with 75 x 75-mm cells are presented. The sampling calorimeter is the central par t of the AK-600 calorimeter at the Tagged Neutrino Experiment. Measure ments for a set of 36 units were performed with pi--meson and electron beams with energies of 40 and 26.6 GeV, respectively. The response an d the energy resolution as functions of the beam impact point coordina te were studied. The energy resolution was obtained as a function of t he energy: sigma(E)/E = 0.03 + 0.56/square-root E. The electron to had ron energy output ratio of the calorimeter is e/h = 1.14.
