Abstract
We have fabricated scintillating tile/fiber units for the CDF plug upgrade electromagnetic calorimeter. The total number of tile/fiber systems amounts to similar to 23000. We describe the quality control tests of scintillator plates, optical fibers, and tile/fiber units which we placed at various st ages in the fabrication procedures. We have completed the production retain ing the tile/fiber units which satisfy our requirements. (C) 1999 Published by Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
