Abstract
A calorimeter design based on high-pressure gas-ionization tubes arran ged nearly parallel to the incident particle direction is described. E nergy, time, and position resolutions of such a calorimeter, as well a s its radiation hardness and electronic noise, are discussed. Resultin g characteristics meet the needs of the forward calorimetry for SSC an d LHC collider experiments, and seem promising for application in othe r, more central parts of these experiments.
