Gl. Bencze et al., FIRST RESULTS FROM PION BEAM TEST OF AN IRON GAS CALORIMETER BASED ONCERAMIC PARALLEL-PLATE CHAMBERS/, Nuclear instruments & methods in physics research. Section A, Accelerators, spectrometers, detectors and associated equipment, 386(2-3), 1997, pp. 259-268
A prototype module of an iron/gas calorimeter based on parallel plate
chambers, has been tested using high energy electrons and pions, at tw
o high voltages, using CF4/CO2 (80/20) at atmospheric pressure, The co
llected charge and energy resolution have been measured as a function
of the beam energy for both electrons and pions and compared with Mont
e Carlo predictions.
