Avalanche Photodiodes and 7-channel HPDs from DEP were installed on a
prototype CMS HCAL and their response to muons, electrons and pions wa
s measured in a test beam. DC response to a radioactive source used to
calibrate the tiles was also studied. Increase in leakage current in
the HPD from an integrated dose of 10(13) neutrons/cm(2) was observed
using a Cf source.
